“…The learning environment in the higher institutions is generally different from the primary or secondary education Every higher institution is built to serve the tertiary education to students based on the various programmes offered and therefore, the design and facilities provided in the higher institutions must suit the objectives of the education programmes However, the assessment of the building condition does not explicitly address the educational inadequacy of the academic buildings that are the relationship between the physical condition of the schools and the various educational goals and activities that take place within the building (Doidge, 2009) Problems in educational buildings include various aspects such as building designs, technical building elements, rooms, facilities, safety aspects, indoor and outdoor environmental problems and noise pollution According to Altan (2010), the increasing number of students and learning activities in higher institution has contributed to the inefficient of energy use and these may decrease the total performance system of the building year by year There are many terms used in evaluating the building performance However, O'Sullivan et al (2004) asserted that most building performance assessment is done at the design stage of a building through the use of simulation tools, some assessment is carried out at the construction and commissioning stage by means of commissioning tests O' Sullivan et al (2004) added that thereafter, there is little or no assessment carried out at the operation and maintenance phases of a buildings lifecycle Many building practitioners are not aware of the requirement of building evaluation after it is occupied Despite many research done towards building performance in higher educational buildings, the standard guideline of the building rating tool towards improving students' learning efficiency is not yet introduced in Malaysia Many studies are delineated to the environmental conditions of the building, such as visual aspects, thermal comfort and air movement, but, none of the research is merely done on the technical aspects of the building element (superstructure and architectural elements)…”
