The Conceptual Framework of Building Performance-Risk Indicators (PRI) for Buildings Users in Higher Education Institutions

Article Preview

Abstract:

Higher education institutions (HEI) buildings are considered as key functional, as it generates environment, human and economic resources. Initially, growing students’ population with various learning activities has constituted risk emergence, green issues, inefficient of energy use and climate discomfort. To sustain the building efficiency, building performance evaluation plays a vital role to improve performance issues in HEI buildings. This paper presents the construct items of performance criteria, namely Building Performance-Risk Indicators (PRI) as the initial framework for the development of building performance rating tool. The framework considers three criteria as the main focus, i.e. performance element, risk frames and the indicators.
