“…Ranking of the alternatives, recognized by a different type of purpose for future use, is done according to defined criteria related to spatial capacities of the existing building(s), their historical and architectural values, protection regime, urban context, and different external social and economic factors. Sometimes the value of heritage buildings is examined to determine the level of protection to be implemented [137]. Further, MCDM is used in combination with other methodological tools such as BIM-Building Information Modeling, and GIS-Geographic Information System [138,139].…”

For the past four decades, the methodology of fuzzy analytic hierarchy process based on fuzzy trapezoidal or triangular numbers with the linear type of membership functions has witnessed an expanding development with applicability to a wide variety of areas, such as industry, environment, education, government, economics, engineering, health, and smart city leadership. On the other hand, the interval gray analytic hierarchy process is a more practical method when a significant number of professionals have large variations in preferences and interests in complex decisions. The paper examines the management of architectural heritage in smart cities, using methods of multi-criteria decision making. Two appropriate methods generally recommended by the scientific literature have been applied: fuzzy and interval grey analytic hierarchy process. By using both techniques, there is an opportunity to analyze the consensual results from the aspect of two different stakeholder groups: architectural heritage experts and smart city development experts. Trapezoidal fuzzy analytical hierarchical process shows better stability than a triangular one. Both approaches assign priority to the strategy, but the interval approach gives a more significant rank to architectural heritage factors. The similarity of the proposed methods has been tested, and the similarity factor in the ranking indicates a high degree of similarity in comparing the reference rankings.

“…Data collection, surveys, and assessment of public heritage buildings are instrumental to management plans, especially when dealing with partially or totally abandoned structures. Valuing cultural heritage has always been a key research topic, focusing mainly on economic aspects [25][26][27][28] and the overall conservation state [29]. In Italy, following the approval in 2004 of the "code of cultural heritage and landscape" [30], valuation and preservation strategies are held as equally significant, although valuation, even for economic exploitation, has to be functionally compatible with the architectural and structural layout.…”

Assessment of Disused Public Buildings: Strategies and Tools for Reuse of Healthcare Structures

et al. 2022

The aim of this paper, in line with the 2030 European Agenda and 2021 Italian “Recovery and Resilience Plan” objectives, is to define an evaluation methodology and tool to support public administrations to detect buildings, currently unused or underused, that might be apt for transformation interventions. The focus is on historical Italian healthcare buildings since these show widespread decay and neglect. A five-step methodology has been developed: screening of public assets; classification, evaluation, and identification of buildings, based on the “potential index”; GIS mapping and inventory; selection of buildings for in-depth analysis; BIM digitization and definition of the “transformability index”. In the fifth phase, an evaluation tool is integrated into the BIM software to automatically calculate the transformability index of each building using six indicators: usability, fragmentation, modifiability, roof implementation, external envelope, and window-to-wall ratio. The “transformability index” helps define the most appropriate buildings to intervene with for reuse. Building transformation is connected to construction features and layout organization and it is limited by architectural, structural, and artistic constraints.

“…This section addresses the work pertinent to the assessment of sustainability and energy efficiency of heritage buildings. Fiore et al [18] introduced a multi-criteria decisionmaking approach for comparing intervention alternatives for historic buildings. The evaluation criteria were preservation, seismic safety, energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, disturbance to users, time of realization, and economic sustainability.…”

Studying Energy Performance and Thermal Comfort Conditions in Heritage Buildings: A Case Study of Murabba Palace

et al. 2021

Heritage buildings are significant historical and architecture added value, which requires deep and precise preliminary brainstorming when considering upgrading or retrofitting these valuable buildings. In this study, we opted to highlight some passive design architecture interventions to improve the thermal comfort and the required cooling energy for buildings. The Murabba Palace in Riyadh was selected as a case study. DesignBuilder software was used to evaluate the energy performance of ten passive architectural design alternatives throughout different seasons in an attempt to improve the energy performance and thermal comfort of heritage buildings. The ten passive design scenarios encompassed double low-E glass, double reflected glass, double low-E glass and double wall with an air gap, double low-E glass and double wall with thermal insulation, double low-E glass and double wall with lightweight thermal insulation, double low-E glass and double wall with sprayed foam insulation, double reflected glass and double wall with an air gap, double reflected glass and double wall with thermal insulation, double reflected glass and double wall with lightweight thermal insulation, and double reflected glass and double wall with sprayed foam insulation. The results show that using double low-E glass and applying a double wall with polystyrene thermal insulation can enhance the thermal comfort inside the building and reduce the energy performance and CO2 emissions to 17% and 9%, respectively.
