Building evaluation methodology for setting maintenance priorities in hospital buildings

By: Series: Construction Management and Economics ; 21(7) October 2003, 681-692(12)Publication details: 2003Subject(s): Summary: Presents the findings of research into the development of a Condition-Based Maintainance (CBM) scheme for large complex facilities. The effective implementation of CBM requires the development of performance indicators for building components and systems. The scheme involves monitoring the condition of building components, the development of parameters to ensure clear detection of failing building components and the provision of key performance indicators. Concludes that the evaluation of the condition of buildings is highly important for the success of any maintenance and rehabilitation programme. References and tables.
