Substitution of Material Solutions in the Operating Phase of a Building

During the operation of buildings, repairs, modernizations, adaptations, renovations, and reconstructions parts historic objects are performed. There is often problem using a different material or construction technology than was originally used, for variety reasons. For example, these materials not currently manufactured, with necessary higher performance values (insulation, strength). The aim article to analyze evaluate possibility substitution in repair works cause effect analysis its application context conditions. analyzes causes conditions various stages exploitation phase including buildings. A SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) matrix developed phenomenon during operational phase. With aid from DEMATEL (Decision Making Trial Evaluation Laboratory) method, identification cause–effect relationships regarding issue applying solutions building carried out. out by authors allows us conclude that use sector justified shows great opportunities implementation development.
