A multi-criteria decision-making synthesis method to determine the most effective option for modernising a public building
Abstract
The study presents a sustainable building modernisation model that uses knowledgebased decision-making methods to general reconstruct old public buildings, intending to achieve the best level of energy use on the design scene. The rapid development and dissemination of standards cause multiple research opportunities in the fields of process automation and adaptation of BIM technologies to the prerequisites of existing buildings. Decision-making was widely supported by imitating structures used in the late stages of design. However, its application is not sufficient at the beginning, which affects design solutions with a significant impact on the performance of the completed building. Construction design is a multifaceted discipline where architects, engineers, contractors, and builders influence design decisions. This modernisation way uses digital systems and simulations to estimate the expected energy consumption of construction faster and economically. BIM and critical characteristics are the basis of the model, where design and general processing needs to follow to pre-built instructions. This solution allows estimating energy demand in reconstructed buildings and correlation of parameters.
