Volume II: Structure of Valuation articulates the structural altitude of Harmonic Enterprise Valuation Science (HEVS), positioning valuation not as intrinsic being (Volume I) nor as lawful dynamics (Volume III), but as admissible form. This volume serves as the "Architectural Bridge" of the Trilogy, establishing the constraint lattices and configuration spaces required for valuation to be expressed coherently before it becomes subject to harmonic law. Distinct from the ontological focus of the preceding volume, Volume II defines the Harmonic Equation Substrate (HES) and the Harmonic Constraint Lattice (HCL) —the static ordering of relations, nodes, and edges that govern how valuation may be assembled without contradiction. Key structural contributions include: Structural Equation Archetypes (SEA): The canonical forms (Linear, Coupled, Branching) through which valuation relations are organized. The Structural Impossibility Boundary: A delineation of configurations that are formally inadmissible due to structural incoherence rather than rule violation. Pre-Harmonic Formation: The identification of "Admissibility Conditions" and "Readiness" states (T₂) that prepare valuation for lawful articulation. SRVO-Structural: The preservation of the Self-Revealing Valuation Object as an identity anchor across complex configurations. Volume II is strictly limited to structural legitimacy, explicitly excluding operators, temporal evolution, and governing equations, which are reserved for the final volume of the Trilogy.
