“…The value of each weight can be adjusted based on regional variation and the importance of the measured criteria, factor, or indicator. The tool does not, however, consider energy consumption and carbon dioxide emission within the energy factor (Abd'Razack and bin Muhamad Ludin, 2013; Akadiri et al , 2012; Waer and Sibley, 2005; Cordero et al , 2019; Bernardi et al , 2017; Fenner and Ryce, 2008; Rodriguez-Trejo et al , 2017; Caputo and Gaterell, 2018; Forsberg and von Malmborg, 2004; Haapio and Viitaniemi, 2008; Nguyen and Altan, 2011; Reed et al , 2009; Zheng et al , 2009; Al-Sakkaf et al , 2020c).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this research is to focus on the evaluation of heritage buildings' sustainability. BIM modeling was necessary for the design of the sustainability assessment model for Heritage Buildings (SAHB). Using ArchiCAD®, energy simulations were performed for two case studies (Murabba Palace, Saudi Arabia, and Grey Nuns Building, Canada), and the developed model was validated through sensitivity analysis.Design/methodology/approachHeritage buildings (HBs) are unique and must be preserved for future generations. This article focuses on a sustainability assessment model and rating scale for heritage buildings in light of the need for their conservation. Regional variations were considered in the model development to identify critical attributes whose corresponding weights were then determined by fuzzy logic. Data was collected via questionnaires completed by Saudi Arabian and Canadian experts, and Fuzzy TOPSIS was also applied to eliminate the uncertainties present when human opinions are involved.FindingsResults showed that regional variations were sufficiently addressed through the multi-level weight consideration in the proposed model. Comparing the nine identified factors that affect the sustainability of HBs, energy and indoor environmental quality were of equal weight in both case studies.Originality/valueThis study will be helpful for the design of a globally applicable sustainability assessment model for HBs. It will also enable decision-makers to prepare maintenance plans for HBs.

“…The problem of increasing the value of private real estate is tackled by Opačak and Wang [36], who evaluate the economic contribution of property owners in the form of building a city park on a specific model example. In a similar vein, Caputo and Gaterell [37] build on the non-deterministic theory of urban planning to develop an evaluation code for assessing the impact of buildings.…”

Determining the Increase in a Building’s Appreciation Rate Due to a Reconstruction

et al. 2020

The reconstruction of buildings generally prolongs their useful life, increases their utility value, and last but not least, leads to an increase in their value. These assumptions only apply if an independent third party reaches the same conclusion together with the owner. However, the undesirable effect of the reconstruction of a building may be a decrease in its value. The aim of this contribution is to determine the change in value of an older sample building assessed in the included case study as a result of its reconstruction. Valuation methods are applied, which, as it turns out, reveal the inaccuracy of the subjective view of the person who reconstructed the building. The resulting change in the value of the sample building is discussed from the point of view of the applied valuation methods and other value-creating aspects (subjective view of the owner on the value of the building, historical value of the building, etc.). The contribution concludes with recommendations for maximizing the increase in value of a property through its reconstruction so as to eliminate the risk of a decrease in its value.

“…Using an e-job sheet makes it easier for students to understand the substance of their learning [2]. Using QR code-based e-job sheets as an assessment tool becomes a challenge and an opportunity to extend the use of technology in education, which is rarely used by lecturers [11], [12]. The idea and bid to use the QR code-based e-job sheets as historical learning assessment tools have become a significant breakthrough and should be further explored.…”

The research objective is to identify primary history students' readiness to use QR code-based e-job sheets in terms of knowledge, experience, and supporting facilities. The research material consists of digital technology devices, smartphones, internet networks, electronic worksheets, QR Code applications, and an assessment of historical learning. This research applied a quantitative approach. Research respondents included significant history students at the Faculty of Social Sciences Universitas Negeri Padang from 2018 to 2022, including 140 students. Data were collected through a Google Form application questionnaire and shared with the students via WhatsApp. The data were analyzed quantitatively by using percentages and averages. General findings showed that many students were ready to use QR code-based e-job sheets, but others still needed them. The particular findings included: 1) more than half of respondents knew what the e-job sheet was, but two-thirds of them had no experience using the e-job sheet, 2) related to QR codes, it was found that half of the respondents knew what QR code was, but a part of them had no experience using QR codes, and 3) two-thirds of the respondents stated that supporting facilities such campus internet and their smartphone were unable to support the use of QR codes-based e-job sheets. QR code-based e-job sheets have become essential in optimizing digital technology in learning activities. Further research is needed to measure the effectiveness of using QR code-based e-job sheets as an alternative strategy and instrument for assessing learning outcomes in the digital era.
