Building Performance Evaluation for Adaptive Reuse: A Multi-Criteria Approach

Adaptive reuse is a common approach for buildings that no longer serve their original function despite good physical conditions. Such applications require the examination of building regarding its qualities and capabilities. The focus this study capability to correspond user’s requirements following adaptive processes, effects new functions on performance optimization. Achieving reliable data in evaluation will be possible only through correct definition association criteria.
