BUILDING PERFORMANCE EVALUATION GEBUNDEN

The main aim of this book is to present an intriguing retrospective of Building Performance
Evaluation (BPE) as it evolved from Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) over the past 25 years. On
one hand  this is done by updating original authors' chapter content of Building Evaluation 
the first edition published in 1989. That  in turn  is augmented by an orientation toward
current and future practice on the other  including new authors who are engaged in ongoing 
cutting edge projects. Therefore  individual  methodology oriented chapters covering the
fundamental principles of POE and BPE go along with major thematic chapters  topics of which
like sustainability or integration of new technologies are addressed in a diversity of case
studies from around the globe. Research  methodologies  and framework of POEs continue to
evolve. POEs are one step  on the larger scale of BPE  in understanding how buildings function
after they are occupied. This resource helps architects  building owners  and facility managers
understand the implications and reactions to the facilities that they designed  built and or
commissioned. By considering the whole process from conception to future uses of the building 
there can be a more holistic approach to the planning  programming  design  construction 
occupancy  and future adaptability of the structure. This book is dedicated to first editor
Wolfgang F. E. Preiser who passed away during the process of editing and reviewing chapters of
this volume.
