“…A couple of attempts have been made in another CE-related field to develop BIM-based Material Passports [78,79]. Concerning the practical assessment of circularity, Di Biccari et al [80] developed a BIM-based framework to evaluate circularity through an Autodesk Revit add-in, based on MP, circular business models, LCA, and LCC. Still, researchers have recognized the infancy and barriers of BIM integration on CE, as well as the lack of circularity-oriented tools, the existence of different material databases and data gaps during the early modelling stage [78,80].…”

A growing interest has been expressed in the issue of building adaptability over the past decade, perceiving it as an intrinsic criterion for sustainability. In light of the circular economy (CE) and its application in the construction sector, more attention has been paid to buildings’ design for adaptability (DfA) towards the realization of circular buildings. DfA is considered a key enabler for other circular design strategies such as design for disassembly (DfD), multi-functionality, spatial transformability, and design reversibility. However, implementation and assessment frameworks, and design-support tools for the circular building, are still in development as the characterization of circular buildings continues with endeavors to draw a defined shape by identifying the prerequisites for circularity where the design takes an important place. For the sake of objectifying the role of DfA in circularity frameworks in buildings, this paper carries out an analytical review and discussion on two types of assessment and design-support frameworks; the first addresses adaptability criteria and considerations in assessment frameworks that handle the concept individually while the second classifies existing circularity assessment endeavors into four main categories under which multiple tools are reviewed. A reflection on the scope and objectives for both types is later performed, illustrating the state of adaptability evaluation and criteria as well as its role in circularity frameworks. Results show that the concept of building adaptability lacks quantitative methods that quantify a building’s capacity to adapt as well as empirical data that prioritize the most valuable criteria facilitating adaptations. Moreover, many circularity assessment frameworks fail to consider adaptability criteria at all hierarchal levels of a building composition. To address this shortcoming, a series of conceptual considerations and requirements is proposed towards a potential establishment of an inclusive framework of a circularity design-support tool in buildings. The study is concluded by identifying gaps and recommendations for further developments in the field.

“…Lee [28] used a BIM-based LCC preliminary estimation at an early design stage and showed that BIM provided more precise results even at the design stage. Finally, WLC can provide a new indicator, which, once integrated into a BIM model, is easily readable and shareable [29], reinforcing the decision-making process as it makes it possible to compare data on a financial basis.…”

“…Concerning these concepts, a study from Di Biccari [29] investigated the use of BIM to support Circular Economy (CE) and LCC indicators to compare alternatives more easily, while Kim [30] proposed a design support tool for material reuse assessment, utilizing BIM to extract data from the deconstructed structure and LCC as an indicator of assessment. Another concept found was Net Zero Emission (NZE), referring to energy consumption and carbon reduction.…”

Life Cycle Costing (LCC) is a cost estimating approach for project and asset planning and delivery that considers the direct and indirect costs incurred over the entire life cycle of an asset. This approach can be expanded to the concept of Whole Life Cost (WLC), which additionally considers externalities and benefits. WLC can demonstrate the financial impacts, both positive and negative, of a project on its environment, in other words it can show its complete value. Despite its potential, the approach is still perceived as complex because, among other things, access to data can be difficult and the approach is still not supported by a standardized methodology. Building Information Modeling (BIM) could be used to address these issues as both WLC and BIM are deemed complementary. BIM provides WLC with better data management, improved calculation accuracy and visualization of project impacts. In return, WLC improves project understanding, decision making and reinforces life cycle thinking. This paper aims to study the potential synergies between BIM and WLC through a systematic literature review. The identification of these synergies helped form a frame of reference to better understand the opportunities that this combination can offer. Future studies would be needed to explore the application of BIM and WLC at different project scales and identify the context in which the combination of BIM and WLC is the most beneficial.

“…For the test data, the degree of association between the list data and the category label is analysed. If the degree is lower than the threshold value, the extensive unit cost of the data is judged abnormal [7]. The flowchart is shown in Figure 3.…”

Projects of engineering construction have the characteristics of large investment and long cycle, which makes the cost management difficult and the data are often abnormal. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the detection of abnormal data in engineering cost list. Based on this, the establishment of a detection model of engineering cost list is studied in this paper. By introducing K-means clustering method into the model, the list is clustered according to the comprehensive unit cost, and the list data are classified by Bayesian list classification method where the value of k is selected as 5. The detection of abnormal data method in engineering cost list is compared with that of the traditional detection method based on distance, which is known that the detection model has good effect, high accuracy and recall rate.
