t has been argued that green buildings have a better indoor environmental quality than conventional buildings and that this translates into a more satisfying workplace for the building's occupants and, inturn, a more productive workforce. Assessing a building's cost effectiveness means taking into account all the costs that will be incurred during its life cycle not just development costs. People found no evidence to believe that green buildings are more comfortable than conventional building. In fact, the only difference between the buildings was that occupants of the green building were more likely to perceive their work environment as warm, and occupants who felt warm were more likely to describe their work environment as poor.

Abstract: The infrastructure business in India is rapidly increasing. Infrastructure is the most major hindrance to the growth of Indian businesses in India. Existing buildings account for 45 percent of worldwide energy use in the current condition. These constructions' greenhouse gas emissions are mostly to blame for global warming, acid rain, and other environmental difficulties. We can reduce our dependency on limited natural resources like power, water, and materials which use in building while simultaneously enhancing our contribution to environmental quality by incorporating green building themes into the design, construction, and maintenance of buildings, and restoration of our houses. It is a common misconception that only new buildings can be certified as green building, however this is not true. Existing buildings may be made certified green by taking certain step. With each existing building's effort in adopting the existing green building strategies, an enormous effect in combating global warming will be anticipated in return. GRIHA provides green building certification at various levels. There are several ways for meeting these objectives with the cooperation of humans and the use of modern technology and procedures. In retrofitting existing building for GRIHA certification, aspects like site availability, energy efficiency, water efficiency, renewable energy, natural lighting are taken into account. The present paper presents the retrofitting required to transform an existing building to a certified green building with ease and cost effectiveness.

When global climate change becoming a problem that is getting worse nowadays, Green Buildings have become one of the major solutions to maintaining a sustainable environment. Because most of the public interpret the messages sent by their environment through visual appearance and images, This study aims to analyze the appearance effects of U.S. LEED and Taiwan EEWH Green Building rating systems by conducting surveys on the publics cognition of green building appearances and green building rating systems, and analyzing the relationship between green building appearance and environmental cognition. The results indicate that building appearance is a key judgment reference for identifying green buildings. However, there has been no significant relationships found between green building rating system and green building appearances so far, which may cause confusion as to the publics cognition and image of green buildings. Therefore, it is recommended that building's appearance image should be included in future revisions of the green building rating systems.

Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) is important to the health, comfort, and well-being of building occupants. Unsatisfactory IEQ is associated with a number of phenomena, most notably, sick building syndrome (SBS), building-related illnesses (BRIs), and multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS), which have major negative effects on productivity. However, green building investors (owners) are not only concerned about reducing the negative impact of their buildings on the environment, but also about the potentially negative impact green buildings can have on their employees' productivity. This research sets out to address, through a questionnaire survey in South Africa, what constitutes the determinants of green building occupants' satisfaction with the IEQ elements of a green building and the health implications of a building's IEQ on the building occupants. Data analysis (involving a one-sample t-test) reveals some interesting findings in regard to what constitutes the determinants of green building occupants' satisfaction with the IEQ elements and the health implications of the IEQ elements of a five-star green rated building in South Africa. Findings from the survey revealed that the occupants of the building were not satisfied with the green building's IEQ, most especially the ineffectiveness of blocking natural and artificial lighting. Also, it was revealed that the IEQ with particular reference to the noise level and ventilation of the space has some serious health implications for the building occupants. The occupants' evaluation revealed that the major health issues from which they suffer include fatigue, headache, common cold, coughing, and influenza, and these affect their productivity and performance. Since building occupants are a rich source of information about IEQ assessment and its effect on productivity, the study can be used to assess the performance of green buildings, identify areas needing improvement, and provide useful feedback to designers and operators about specific aspects of green building design features and operating strategies that need improvement. This study adds to the body of knowledge on green buildings' IEQ performance.

<p><span lang="EN-US">The number of high-rise buildings in the big cities of Indonesia is increasing along with land being more limited and its prices being very high. Most of these high-rise buildings are in Jakarta and some of them are facing the risk of building failure that may cause business and operation interruption. These buildings that have been erected and operating need to receive regular maintenance and supervision to ensure the building's condition and safety. Many building owners and managers do not conduct and plan maintenance and supervision properly causing these buildings of being at risk of fire and building structure – mechanical failure / damage. For this reason, rigorous regulations, and its enforcement in building construction and maintenance are needed to ensure that these buildings operate reliably and encourage building owners and facility manager to comply with them properly. Cultivated Penalty and strict sanctions need to be renewed and must be implemented properly by Government bodies and local authority. Building Audit Institute can be formed to assist the central government and local governments (Governor) in carrying out their functions to ensure the safety and security of buildings, including their users. Strengthening existing laws and regulations will greatly assist in law enforcement and certainty for owners, building managers and building users, which in turn will support national development.</span></p>

Full textAbstract:
Today the construction of green buildings is in full swing, and the concept of green goes deeply into the hearts of the people. However, practitioners in the construction industry often place the emphasis of green building construction on the stage of design and construction. They hardly realize that green building's operation stage is the most important part in the whole life cycle of the building. To build real green building, it also needs sustainable development in the operation stage. The appearing of BIM (Building Information Model) technique effectively solved this problem. Using BIM technique in operation stage can effectively promote work efficiency of the operation organization, improve quality of service to customers, reduce the occurrence of emergencies in building's operation stage, improve safety performance, reduce resources waste and then construct real green buildings.

Energy conservation and human thermal comfort enhancement in buildings is a topical issue of modern architecture and construction. The innovative solution of this problem makes it possible to enhance building ecological and maintenance safety, to reduce hydrocarbon fuel consumption, and to improve life standard of people. The requirements to increase of energy efficiency in buildings should be provided at all the stages of building's life cycle that is at the stage of design, construction and maintenance of buildings. The research purpose is complex analysis of energy efficiency in operated high-rise residential building. Many actions for building energy efficiency are realized according to the project; mainly it is the effective building envelope and engineering systems. Based on results of measurements the energy indicators of the building during annual period have been calculated. The main reason of increase in heat losses consists in the raised infiltration of external air in the building through a building envelope owing to the increased air permeability of windows and balcony doors (construction defects). Thermorenovation of the building based on ventilating and infiltration heat losses reduction through a building envelope allows reducing annual energy consumption. Energy efficiency assessment based on the total annual energy consumption of building, including energy indices for heating and a ventilation, hot water supply and electricity supply, in comparison with heating is more complete. The account of various components in building energy balance completely corresponds to modern direction of researches on energy conservation and thermal comfort enhancement in buildings.

The global warming issue has become a concern for environmentalists activists, including many governments. This concern is due to the increasing attention to reducing the use of fossil energy because fossil energy has significantly exacerbated global warming. To minimize the use of fossil energy, especially the housing sector that is one of the extensive energy users. Building performance's analysis is done by creating changes to the case study's building envelope material. Case study buildings were simulated in energy analysis software. Preliminary analysis shows how the performance of the case study building is still far from the standard of thermal comfort. Air conditioning (AC) usage in the room will give comfort in terms of temperature. But, even though with the AC, the humidity level of the room was still high. Two building models are then created in the software to see the performance of the building by making changes to the building envelope material. With the settings on air-conditioning (AC) and environmental conditions in both models, the results indicate differences in the building performance of the two buildings. The results show that the building with insulation are using less energy and can provide optimal comfort for building users. Comfort is not only in terms of the building's temperature but including building relative humidity. In buildings with insulation, the temperature and humidity of the building are relatively stable throughout the year.

While rebuilding post-war Ukraine, there will be a need to introduce historical buildings into the discourse of energy-efficient improvements both to ensure the energy security of the country and to preserve the historical fund and increase its potential in the context of prospects. The process of energy-efficient reintegration of a historical building requires the use of complex methods for collecting information about the current state of the building, which include both historical and social history collection, as well as non-invasive measurements of the building's characteristics, as well as object modeling for analytical studies of the building's indicators. These studies are conducted to establish the energy-economic characteristics of the building in order to identify the potential for reducing energy consumption and minimizing the impact of the building on the environment.
Methods of researching the current state of historical buildings energy efficiency are determined by two principled approaches, which involve either direct measurement of building characteristics, or simulation of an analytical model to calculate indicators, based on parametric data and characteristics of the building environment. However, they are preceded by the collection of the building`s historical anamnesis, to understand the context, essence and processes that historically took place in the building and affect the current energy consumption. A careful analysis and a balanced understanding of the historical building is required to set goals for the ongoing renovation of the historical building for the further selection of innovative solutions and energy-efficient strategies.

Abstract. Buildings with component degradation are a common challenge for all construction companies across the world. There are various building's components that it is challenging for construction companies to manage them all at once. It was not considered that the building agency is responsible for more than one building at a time. These issues have gotten more complicated as a result of the building agencies' limited financial resources for building maintenance. This study attempts to provide a visible solution to manage the building maintenance strategy based on complex building maintenance problems. The Analytical Hierarchy Process was used to give a complete way for assessing the building's condition (AHP). This method developed in this study was applied to define the building condition and followed by determining the building priority to be maintained. The building component in this study was specified into three specific components such as interior, exterior, and building utility. To complete this method, a three-level priority factor was determined with consideration from the safety factor follow by the functionality factor, dan the last is an esthetic factor. The developed model shows a proper and reliable solution related to the degradation of building components and their functionalities.

On the basis of modern experience, architectural and engineering methods, architectural and planning methods, and architectural and urban planning methods of the formation of noise-proof residential buildings and the means of their formation have been identified.
Architectural and engineering methods include such means as the use of facade panels, noise-proof screens and gratings, noise-proof facades, noise-proofing materials, supports, the organization of dynamic elements (grids, facades, etc.), plastic fragments of the surface of the enclosing shell (folded, stalactite and etc.). This should also include artificial landscaping of surfaces (vertical and horizontal landscaping).
Architectural and planning methods should include such means as the organization of noise-proof spaces (non-residential premises), horizontal communications (corridors, galleries), corridors and external or internal atriums, the creation of intermediate recreational spaces (balconies, terraces, bay windows), the organization of a curvilinear building plan. Noise protection is also often used due to the creation of non-residential first floors of buildings.
Architectural and town-planning methods should include such means as turning from the main road, moving away from the main road, shielding with landscape groups, shielding with a noise shield, shielding with a non-residential building.

Glass is the major component of the building envelope to provide visual comfort to inside the buildings. In général clear and bronze glass was used as a main building envelope for both residential and commercial buildings to provide better day lighting into the buildings. If we use more glass area as a building envelope more radiation allows into the buildings. So that it is necessary to reduce more solar radiation and provide sufficient daylight factor inside the building's through glass windows with the help of external devices called shading devices. In this work four shading devices was tried on bronze glass window to find the heat gain and daylighting into buildings. This paper presents the experimental measurement of spectral characteristics of bronze glass which include transmission and reflection in entire solar spectrum region (300nm-2500nm) based on ASTM standards. A MATLAB code was developed to compute visible and solar optical properties as per the British standards. A building model was designed by design builder software tool. 40% window to wall ratio was considered for building models, thermal and day lighting analysis of buildings through windows was carried out in Energy plus software tool for hot and dry climatic zone of India.

Buildings are significant consumers of energy and producer of greenhouse gases worldwide, and serious efforts have been put into designing energy-efficient buildings. Significant technological advances have been achieved in developed countries; however, advances have rarely been adopted in developing countries like Afghanistan. Such trends emerge from the lack of research in designing energy-efficient buildings to local conditions, practices and materials. This research focused on building energy modelling and simulation to evaluate the energy performance impact of different shading and orientation. The research design follows a case study over an actual seven-storey multi-apartment residential building in the city of Mazar-I-Sharif, Afghanistan, using primary field data and dynamic simulation. Findings demonstrated that neighbouring structures have a positive correlation with a cooling demand. Meanwhile, south is the optimal orientation to face the building's glazed façade, saving up to 7.4% of cooling and 9.7% of heating energy. Moreover, movable shading devices installed on the building's openings in the summer season reduce the building energy load up to 19%, with a total energy cost reduction of AFN. 188,448 ($2447.37 US) annually. The study underlines the vast research scope in customizing building designs to Afghanistan's climatic conditions and other developing countries, thus contributing to buildings’ sustainability.

Full textAbstract:
William Le Baron Jenney and the Home Insurance Building have been given a pivotal position in many of the early histories of modern architecture, a reputation that has been consistently embroiled in controversy during the building's 100-year history. The context of the Home Insurance Building in Chicago's commercial building milieu immediately prior to Jenney's design of 1884 reveals that tall buildings constructed before the Home Insurance Building were called skyscrapers. Many of these earlier buildings, in fact, were even taller than the final height of the Home Insurance Building. A technical analysis of Jenney's final structural design reveals that it was neither conceived nor detailed as a rigid, independent iron frame. A recently discovered article on the potential of iron framing published by Chicago architect Frederick Baumann in March 1884, before Jenney even started designing the Home Insurance Building, not only disputes Jenney's reputation as the "father of the iron skeleton frame," but also exposes the antiquated nature of Jenney's actual structure and detailing.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents an approach to seismically strengthen buildings to a life-safety criterion. Existing buildings do not comply with most provisions of modern model building codes and, as a result, are often considered seismically deficient. Buildings identified as seismic hazards are often not rehabilitated because the cost of the rehabilitation proves uneconomical, but the buildings usually continue in use because there are no funds to replace the structure. Building occupants continue to be exposed to hazardous conditions until building owners are forced to rehabilitate or demolish the structure by legally mandated seismic rehabilitate programs. Attainment of economical strengthening schemes requires that one identify essential goals and approach the seismic rehabilitation problem from the perspective of trying to achieve these goals. If prevention of building collapse and preservation of life-safety are the objectives of seismic rehabilitation, acceptance of higher levels of building damage may be an acceptable tradeoff for a reduction in the seismic rehabilitation cost. Explicit consideration of the building's available ductility, existing stiffness, and permissible lateral displacement permit the introduction of strengthening systems that address the fundamental weaknesses in the existing building. This limits the expenditure of funds to that required to achieve the required level of life safety without having to spend money to unreasonably reduce damage levels.

Tall buildings are being designed and built across a wide range of cities. A poorly designed tall building can tremendously increase the building's appetite for energy. Therefore, this paper aims to determine the design strategies that help a high-rise office building to be more energy efficient. For this purpose, a comparative study on twelve case buildings in three climate groups (temperate, sub-tropical & tropical) was performed. The exterior envelope, building form and orientation, service core placement, plan layout, and special design elements like atria and sky gardens were the subject of investigation. effectiveness of different design strategies for reducing the cooling, heating, ventilation and electric lighting energy usage. Finally, lessons from these buildings' were defined for the three climates. Furthermore, a comparison of building energy performance data with international benchmarks confirmed that in temperate and sub-tropical climates sustainable design strategies for high-rise buildings were performing well, as a result leading to lower energy consumption. However, for the tropics the design of high-rise buildings needs additional consideration.

DKI Jakarta, as the capital of the Republic of Indonesia, has the highest population density in Indonesia, with a population of 16,334 people / km2. Therefore, community facilities and infrastructure within the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government play an important role so that community service can be carried out properly. As one of the main infrastructures, State Buildings must have building reliability as stated in the technical requirements stipulated in Presidential Regulation Number 73 of 2016. Building maintenance is an activity to maintain the building's reliability and infrastructure, and facilities so that the building always functions properly. Based on a survey conducted by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Office for The Creation of Works, Spatial Planning and Land Use in 2019, the number of building assets of Province DKI Jakarta are 9823 buildings. 60% of those buildings were classified as Simple-Building category. Due to the numerous building assets, maintenance activities need to be supported by an adequate maintenance system. This study aims to develop a building maintenance system based on web. The methodology used in this research are expert validation, interviews, field survey and literature studies. The results of the validation process will be developed into a simple-building’s web-based maintenance system framework.

Full textAbstract:
The new Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) 2018 and the GebäudeEnergieGesetz (GEG) tightened the requirements for energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources in buildings at EU and national levels. Environmental impacts from manufacturing, dismantling and recycling of buildings are not taken into account. Green Building Certification Systems, such as the DGNB or BNB systems, are therefore the only ones that (voluntarily) set holistic, ecological requirements for buildings. Based on a Whole-Building Life Cycle Assessment, the entire building life cycle and its environmental effects are evaluated. While building services in this context are usually only included in such a simplified approach, the full scope of the produced environmental impacts are underestimated and misjudged for the reduction of emissions and other environmental impacts. This publication uses the results of a life cycle assessment of a typical office building (in Germany) to show the amount of influence building services have on environmental impacts of buildings. Furthermore the study shows an approach how the very high pro-curement and calculation effort of LCA can be reduced by linking the Building Information Modelling (BIM) Method and LCA models to enable a significantly more efficient and easier calculation process, es-pecially for building services.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe acquisition of data regarding the performance of buildings and the use of metrics to understand their performance level are critical for efficient building management. Performance indicators are key elements in this process. They shall be clearly defined and provide the means for easily measuring building performance. These performance indicators should cover all aspects of a building's life cycle including safety, operability and sustainability. To facilitate such a process, it is preferable to group the performance indicators into categories, namely the key performance indicators. In this paper, the key performance indicators for buildings are determined by compiling the identified critical ones in the literature. A case study of an R/C building in Greece is used to quantify the presented metrics focusing mainly on safety. The reliability index indicator is calculated based on the simulation and analysis of a building subsystem. Other key performance indicators relevant to building maintenance are considered on scenario basis. The study has been conducted as part of the IABSE Task Group 5.2. – “Key Performance Indicators: Definition” and provides valuable insight into using quantified metrics for decision‐making in building management.

Abstract While the energy consumption for building operation for new buildings in Germany is limited by law, there is currently no regulation for the embodied energy and the amount of primary raw material used in construction. However, the embodied energy and the amount of primary raw material of energy efficient buildings are increasing due to higher insulation standards and advanced building services. Nevertheless, the embodied energy of buildings and the use of recycled materials are rarely considered in the planning process. In the research project “Rural Mining” the relocation of two single-family homes and one two-family home in prefabricated timber construction was monitored. After serving as exhibition houses for ten to twenty years, the three buildings were transferred to new sites. Besides the reuse potential of prefabricated timber elements, the reuse potential of the building services was investigated. In this paper the focus lies on building services. The type, the amount and the material of the building services were recorded. The dismantling of the building services was documented and a Life Cycle Assessment was conducted. The paper will give an overview of the relocation process. The single steps and the reuse rates for the examined buildings will be shown. The aims are to define strategies to increase the reuse potential of building services and to draw conclusions for resource efficiency in future new buildings or renovations.

Dampness, which is frequently caused by water ingress from heavy rainfall, building usage, maintenance practice, condensation, or insufficient ventilation, can manifest in a variety of ways, ranging from visible damp patches on walls to less visible but equally insidious effects below the surface. Understanding the factors contributing to dampness is critical for architects, builders, and maintenance professionals looking to protect structures from damaging effects. This paper reports on a finding of unwanted dampness in university facility buildings. The primary goal is to highlight significant issues and propose potential solutions, as well as to raise building owners' awareness of building condition surveys and their relationship to building maintenance management. The condition assessment will bring a wide range of non-destructive equipment to four facility buildings of university. This paper contributed to a better understanding of dampness factors in building structures. It also looks at ways to improve the building's maintenance strategies.

Full textAbstract:
The “Legalizing Specific Building by Special Measure Act” (abbreviated as the “Specific Building Legalization”) is a temporary law that allows for the legalization of small residential violating buildings under specific conditions through using approval. The “Specific Building Legalization” mandates on-site investigations to determine whether a building qualifies as a specific building, even if the investigators are not experts in the fields of construction, safety, and machinery. To ensure professional and safe using approval, it is necessary to address the issues of lax on-site inspections by introducing a system involving engineers in specialized fields and specialized civil servants. One of the concerns is related to the setback regulation from north side of the building to secure sunlight, which could unintentionally lead to illegal expansion through the formation of verandas. This setback regulation from north side needs to be reconsidered to avoid potential violations of legal fairness. Additionally, the law provides an exemption from the obligation to create an additional parking lot when the building's area increases at the time of using approval under the “Specific Building Legalization” through the 'Special Exception for Establishment of Attached Parking Lot.' Instead of granting special exemptions for parking lots, an alternative plan should be developed to maintain legal fairness. Upon the enforcement of the “Specific Building Legalization”, there should be a plan to increase awareness and establish an application support system to prevent exclusion from the designation of specific buildings due to lack of recognition or ignorance of the law. Furthermore, there is a need to prevent the proliferation of residential violating buildings, especially right before the law comes into effect, by excluding recently constructed buildings that have been using approved for less than two years from being considered as specific buildings. Despite being a temporary law, building owners, contractors, and executors seem to expect repeated enforcement and continue constructing small residential violating buildings. To address this issue, continuous additional enforcement of the “Specific Building Legalization” should be prevented, and administrative penalties for violating buildings built after the enforcement should be strengthened. The scope of punishment should also be expanded to include constructors and implementers. Overall, refining and addressing these concerns will be crucial to ensuring the effective and fair implementation of the “Specific Building Legalization” while promoting safety and compliance with building regulations.

As global environmental problems such as golbal warming and ozone depletion have become more serious in these days, many researches are being done for building's impact on these problems. Under these circumstances, this study has been carried out to introduce the efforts of improving environmental performance of buildings that place enormous impact on global environment and to propose reasonable direction for development and operation of sustainable building via reviewing Life Cycle Assessment(LCA) as legitimate basis of an environmental friendly building, called Green Building. Recently, LCA has been accepted as the most logical method for environmental labelling and practically used in many parts of environmental assessment of buildings. To graft LCA to Green Building Certificate actively, preparation of specific data and reasonable administration of certificate system is highly needed. Green Building Certificate which is performed against potential impact in design and planning phase also should go in parallel with the surveillance control to confirm effectiveness of practical operation.

Universitas Muhammadiyah Purwokerto has numerous buildings, including the rectorate and the 55.27-meter-tall K.H. A.R. Fachruddin building, that could be struck by lightning and as a result, it require an efficient lightning arrester system (SPP). This study aims to evaluate the building's lightning safety level in compliance with SNI 03-7015-2004, the General Regulations for Lightning Protection Installation (PUIPP), and the building's lightning arrester system's state. Direct measurements of building structures, lightning arrester system components, lightning arrester conditions, and soil resistance are employed to collect research data using the observational approach. The study calculates the degree of protection in structures in accordance with the General Regulations for Lightning Protection Installation (PUIPP) standards and determines the value of the protection range using SNI 03-7015-2004. Both the KH AR Fachruddin building and the rectorate building have an R index of 14, which means that they both desperately need an efficient lightning arrester. The Rector building's system is only 75% effective, compared to 91% in the KH AR Fachruddin building.

Full textAbstract:
The wind is an essential factor to consider in the design and construction of tall buildings. As buildings get taller, the wind's impact becomes more significant, and the building's stability and safety become more critical. The interfering effect is one of the significant consequences of a building that needs to be considered. The "interfering effect" is a phenomenon in wind engineering that occurs when an upstream structure affects the wind load on a downstream building. In the past, most of the studies of interfering effects were done with 2D or 3D simulations, only considering one or two parameters from the shape, height, and angle. Therefore, this research attempts to analyze the interfering effect qualitatively and quantitatively from the upstream building to a selected squareshaped principal building by varying the height of the interfering building with different shapes, namely, circular, cross, and triangular shapes with different orientations based on 3D CFD modeling. The commercial CFD package Midas NFX is used for this numerical analysis. The results from the base moment and base shear suggest that a safety factor for interfering effects should be considered in designing the building structures in the city area to ensure the stability of the building, and it is, for the worst-case scenario, 1.3. The pressure fluctuation results highlighted the importance of designing the connection of the cladding system to both compression and tension forces. The findings of the present paper will be crucial in ensuring the stability and safety of the building structures when those buildings are in a dense building environment.

Full textAbstract:
Accurate prediction of buildings’ lifecycle energy consumption is a critical part in lifecycle assessment of residential buildings. Longitudinal variations in building conditions, weather conditions and building's service life can cause significant deviation of the prediction from the real lifecycle energy consumption. The objective is to improve the accuracy of lifecycle energy consumption prediction by properly modelling the longitudinal variations in residential energy consumption model using Markov chain based stochastic approach. A stochastic Markov model considering longitudinal uncertainties in building condition, degree days, and service life is developed: 1) Building's service life is estimated through Markov deterioration curve derived from actual building condition data; 2) Neural Network is used to project periodic energy consumption distribution for each joint energy state of building condition and temperature state; 3) Lifecycle energy consumption is aggregated based on Markov process and the state probability. A case study on predicting lifecycle energy consumption of a residential building is presented using the proposed model and the result is compared to that of a traditional deterministic model and three years’ measured annual energy consumptions. It shows that the former model generates much narrower distribution than the latter model when compared to the measured data, which indicates improved result.

In the conditions of rapid scientific and technological progress, the technologies development pace of designing buildings and structures began to outstrip the practical application of them in the domestic market in comparison with the countries of the western world. Ukrainian building design tools have ceased to be internationally competitive. In these circumstances, it is especially important to introduce new and improve existing methods and tools for modeling buildings and structures. An important task for a modern designer is the ability to use a computer model at various stages of the building's life cycle, namely: design, construction, operation. To solve this problem, one can apply a new design method - Building Information Modeling (BIM). The purpose of this research is to explore the possibilities of using information modeling technologies for buildings as a means of their life cycle managing. The scientific and practical importance of the work stands in the possibility of introducing of information modeling technologies of buildings not only as a new design method, but also as a means of managing of the life cycle of the building at all its stages. The results of the research are based on the analysis of literary sources and practical experience of the authors. The article revealed the possibility usage of building information modeling as means of managing of the life cycle of building and structures.
