This paper disscusses the method of evaluating tactile response of various materials and its applications. 1) A specific material can be evaluated by plotting its data in the space coordinate of warmth, hardness and roughness. 2) Building materials can be classified into seven groups by applying clusteranalysis. 3) The value of affect or dryness of a specific material can be calculated from those of warmth, hardness and roughness factors. 4) The effectiveness of the evaluation method above were confirmed by the building engineers through the questionnairs.
