In typical protocol analyses the researchers commence with a pre-existingcoding scheme and modify it based on the task and events in the current protocol. In this projectwe will use a principled coding scheme based on the FBS ontology developed by Gero andcolleagues (Gero, 1990; Gero & Kannengiesser, 2004). The FBS ontology contains three types ofvariables: Function (F), Behavior (B) and Structure (S). Function (F) represents the designintentions or purposes of the design; behavior (B) represents the object’s attributes that can beeither directly derived from a representation of the object (Bs) or expected to be derived
