“…To demonstrate the results with equivalent life cycle impact categories, Table 2 shows the characterization results. Many of studies, such as (Ansah et al, 2020;Bahramian & Yetilmezsoy, 2020;Hu, 2019;Najjar et al, 2019;Sedláková et al, 2020;Thibodeau et al, 2019;Wu et al, 2020;Xue et al, 2020), have focused on the GWP as it is the first challenges on the environmental impacts overall the world. Therefore, the GWP results of the steel, concrete, brick, and tiles are (3.4E5 kg CO2 eq), (2.55E5 kg CO2 eq), (9.67E4 kg CO2 eq) and (4.31E4 kg CO2 eq) respectively.…”

Although buildings have many benefits, the construction industry represents a big barrier to implement the strategic environmental plans. Specifically, in Egypt as one of the developing countries, the building construction sector consumes around 40% of the global raw material extraction, according to (World Resources Institute, 2015). Furthermore, the manufacturing industries and construction processes have 23% of all fuel combustion activities and have 22% of all GHG emissions according to the BIENNIAL update report (Ministry of Environment, 2018). This paper is one of a set of scientific papers that will be introduced to apply the integration methodology of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) on a health clinic as a proposed building in Assiut University Hospital. The results have revealed that that the main harmful environmental impacts are the respiratory inorganics, global warming potential, and non-renewable energy as the midpoint method, additionally the human health and resource depletion as endpoint method. In particular, the GWP results of the steel, concrete, brick, and tiles are (3.4E5), (2.55E5), (9.67E4), and (4.31E4) kg CO 2 equivalent respectively as a midpoint result. For the endpoint method, the weighting results conducted that the human health and resources depletion have recorded the largest figures, as well as the steel, concrete, brick, and tiles industries have massive environmental burdens. Additionally, the paper has summarized that there is an urgent need to introduce sustainable alternatives of building materials particularly since these industries emit many of emissions such as CO 2 , P. M2.5, SO 2 and C 2 H 4 . Ultimately, the paper has introduced future recommendations for both proposed and existing buildings.

“…As Figure 9 shown, the steel has the worst environmental impacts, and the plaster has less one; this corresponds to (Ansah et al, 2020;Llantoy et al, 2020;Sedláková et al, 2020). Steel manufacturing records 111 points (Pt), then concrete with 58.4 Pt.…”

“…The use of life cycle cost analysis in the pre-project planning of building renovations with regards to the technical and financial feasibility of increasing energy savings is recommended by Ruparathna, Hewage, and Sadiq [30]. The same analysis is applied to the transformation of an industrial building (brownfield) into a residential building by Sedláková et al [31]. Another example is given by Kaewunruen, Sresakoolachai, and Kerinnonta [32], who model the average existing town house and create optional models for improving energy efficiency.…”

Determining the Increase in a Building’s Appreciation Rate Due to a Reconstruction

The reconstruction of buildings generally prolongs their useful life, increases their utility value, and last but not least, leads to an increase in their value. These assumptions only apply if an independent third party reaches the same conclusion together with the owner. However, the undesirable effect of the reconstruction of a building may be a decrease in its value. The aim of this contribution is to determine the change in value of an older sample building assessed in the included case study as a result of its reconstruction. Valuation methods are applied, which, as it turns out, reveal the inaccuracy of the subjective view of the person who reconstructed the building. The resulting change in the value of the sample building is discussed from the point of view of the applied valuation methods and other value-creating aspects (subjective view of the owner on the value of the building, historical value of the building, etc.). The contribution concludes with recommendations for maximizing the increase in value of a property through its reconstruction so as to eliminate the risk of a decrease in its value.
