“…Sustainability approach to construction is unique in the context of each project, so that it is influenced by different local, regional, and international customers and stakeholders, as well as their priorities [1,[69][70][71]. Because of this, it is difficult to ensure decisions and it can potentially lead to significant economic, social, and environmental consequences [72][73][74]. Decision tools as part of sustainability tools, along with ranking tools, calculations, and guidelines to reduce the risk of projects related to sustainability and sustainable development and in the framework of evaluation of these projects by consulting engineers or universities in order to use.…”

Sustainable development and environment in the activities of the construction industry has attracted the attention of experts in most countries of the world. One of the obvious and problematic features of the construction industry of countries is the use of modern building materials using traditional construction methods. Changing the paradigm for sustainable buildings requires a change in the architectural design process. Today, smart buildings are buildings that are at a lower level in terms of energy consumption and operate in a dynamic and integrated environment, creating a perfect harmony between management, system, services, and structure. These qualities make plastics ideal products for construction and an essential component for a sustainable built environment. In the design of smart and sustainable buildings, the use of environmentally friendly materials increases the lifespan of the building and an effective step is taken towards the design of sustainable architecture. In this paper, we evaluate hotel construction based on sustainability issues with MCDM. The results show that alternative A4 is the best alternative in sustainable issues. With the increasing population and its concentration in large cities, the concern of energy supply and energy efficiency in buildings is one of the main concerns of urban planners, officials, and city residents. Construction projects mainly consume large amounts of materials and leave a huge amount of waste, and this problem sometimes includes existing buildings that cannot be demolished and need to be rebuilt and maintained.

“…En España cabe destacar los análisis de viabilidad del transporte urbano de Zaragoza (Moreno-Loscertales et al, 2019) o la aplicación de técnicas de análisis multicriterio en la evaluación de impactos ambientales en distintos campos como la conservación del suelo, la recogida selectiva, la gestión de residuos y recursos naturales, y de sistemas constructivos (García Leyton, 2004;Gómez-López et al, 2007;Lamelas García, 2014;Josa et al, 2020). Una revisión actualizada de alternativas en esta línea de evaluación de la sostenibilidad puede consultarse en (Pons-Valladares & Nikolic, 2020).…”

This article develops a methodology in the field of urban rehabilitation and improvement operations in consolidated urban fabrics. It aims to streamline the process of awarding an appropriate use to an existing area or building. It is intended to serve as a basis for buildings that are currently in disuse or obsolete. Due to their importance as generators of new activity, they deserve a detailed study of the role they could play in the context in which they find themselves. Thus, from a series of (finite) alternatives extracted from the analysis of the existing facilities in the study area, and a set of criteria constructed through the analysis of indicators (economic, social, and environmental), census sections needs are prioritized by comparison with the rest of the municipality. For this, a general model is proposed that combines a method of Principal Components Analysis (PCA), for the extraction of indicators that characterize the area, with a discrete multi-criteria method known as Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), which manages to balance their weights and the alternatives ones. The methodology is exemplified by a case study of a disused building in Sabadell. From the combination of the two methods, and the correction of the weights obtained, depending on the characteristics of the area, it is possible to establish a map of needs for each proposed use (alternatives) and to obtain the best alternative for the studied area.Este artículo desarrolla una metodología en el campo de las operaciones de rehabilitación y mejora urbana en tejidos urbanos consolidados. Tiene por objeto racionalizar el proceso de adjudicación de un uso a una zona o edificio existente y pretende servir de base para edificios que actualmente han quedado en desuso u obsoletos y que, por su entidad, merecen un estudio pormenorizado del papel que podrían jugar en el contexto en que se encuentran, como generadores de nueva actividad. Así, a partir de una serie de alternativas (finitas) extraídas a partir del análisis de los equipamientos existentes en la zona de estudio, y una serie de criterios construidos mediante el análisis de indicadores (económicos, sociales y ambientales) se priorizan por secciones censales las necesidades por comparación con el resto del municipio. Para ello se propone una metodología general que combina un método de Análisis de Componentes Principales (en adelante ACP), para la extracción de indicadores que caractericen la zona, con un método multicriterio discreto conocido como Analytic Hierarchy Process (en adelante AHP), que consiga ponderar sus pesos y los de las alternativas. La metodología se ejemplifica mediante un caso de estudio de un edificio en desuso en Sabadell. A partir de la combinación de los dos métodos, y la corrección de los pesos obtenidos en función de las características de la zona, es posible establecer un mapa de necesidades para cada uso de los planteados (alternativas), y obtener, además, la mejor alternativa para la zona de estudio.

“…There is a lot of literature devoted to the problems of implementing this concept on the territory of the Russian Federation, the problems of regulating the regulatory framework, creating their own standards. However, along with the above, the question of the operation and maintenance of such buildings remains open, and, in particular, the conduct of a technical survey, for example, if it is necessary to carry out repairs or change its technological significance [5][6][7][8].…”

The article is devoted to the consideration of the issues and methodology of the development of the technical survey of the building constructed with the use of “green” technologies. The implementation of investment and construction projects of this kind over the past decade is gaining more and more popularity in our country. This is largely due to several factors, including the need to save energy resources, reduce utility costs, increase the comfort and safety of people living or working in such buildings, and take care of the environment. To date, the greatest interest in the implementation of “green” investment and construction projects is the implementation of office, retail, sports and warehouse facilities. The construction of residential buildings is not yet as popular as in Western countries, but there is a trend towards its development. There are a number of foreign and Russian standards that allow you to certify a building for the assignment of the status of a “green” object. Methods of scoring in the presented standards (BREEAM, LEED and GREEN ZOOМ) mainly focused on energy efficiency, safety, comfort, an important environmental aspects of construction, however, almost no technical component and verification algorithms of structural elements of the building. Carrying out a high-quality technical survey is a prerequisite for making a decision on the reconstruction, re-profiling or repair of the object. In conducting these activities should take into account the fact that the engineer needs to spend not just a “green” technical survey and study taking into account the specific “green” technologies, including to identify design features of the building, to conduct a detailed examination of all utilities, to identify the effectiveness of the functioning and relevance of using specific design elements (if any), to develop arrangements for the repair, conversion or renovation with regard to maintaining or certification. Within the framework of the presented article, the authors identified problems, developed a comprehensive algorithm for conducting a technical survey of a building built with the use of "green" technologies, and gave methodological recommendations.
