Adaptstar Model: A Climate-Friendly Strategy To Promote Built Environment Sustainability, Sheila Conejos, Craig Langston, Jim Smith
Adaptstar Model: A Climate-Friendly Strategy To Promote Built Environment Sustainability, Sheila Conejos, Craig Langston, Jim Smith
Sheila Conejos
Building adaptive reuse plays a critical role in emissions reduction and supports global climate protection. Thus, the designing of future buildings with embedded adaptive reuse potential is a useful criterion for sustainability. This paper describes the development of a new rating tool known as adaptSTAR, which offers holistic and unified design criteria suitable for assessing the adaptive reuse potential of future buildings. The findings show that criteria can be identified and weighted according to physical, economic, functional, technological, social, legal and political categories to calculate an adaptive reuse star rating. In addition, this paper reports on the first stage …
