ABSTRACT

Building information modelling (BIM) is viewed as one of the solutions to eliminate industry fragmentation and inefficiencies. BIM is a standardised machine-readable information model to improve design, construction, operation and maintenance processes throughout a project life cycle. The development of performance measurement in building management aims to optimise the quality and service of buildings, as well as meeting energy and cost parameters. Maintenance detailing, materials and components that provide technical feed for easy maintenance under tropical climate change are the approaches to optimise building performance by saving maintenance costs. Measurement of building performance is an assessment that helps to identify the strengths and weaknesses of operation and maintenance activities. Environmental assessment tools share similarities in broad criteria. After holistic reviewing, among the fourteen tools, assessment criteria can be divided into: management, sustainable site, transport, indoor environmental quality (IEQ), water, waste, material, energy, pollution, innovation, economic, social, culture and quality of service.
