Sharifi, A A and Farahinia, A H (2020) Evaluation of the future adaptive reuse of mashrooteh house using the adaptSTAR model. International Journal of Building Pathology and Adaptation, 38(5), pp. 771-784. ISSN 23984708
Abstract
Purpose: The concept of adaptive reuse is an effective strategy in enhancing the heritage assets economic, cultural and social values. The main purpose of this research is to determine how to increase the life of the heritage buildings thereby improving their sustainability and reducing energy consumption and waste, while preserving them from the risk of obsolescence. Design/methodology/approach: The qualitative method has been used in this research to evaluate the functional quality and sustainability of Mashrooteh house by using the adaptSTAR model with its scoring sheet with respective design criteria. Predicting and evaluating the sustainability and adaptability of the historic Mashrooteh house in Tabriz will ensure its reuse and increase its adaptability and future life. Findings: Findings have shown that to increase the adaptability and future life of Mashrooteh house, it requires the improvement of the physical, legal, technological and functional criteria in order to provide suitable conditions for increasing the environmental and functional sustainability of this heritage building, while improving the quality of its spaces. Originality/value: With the emphasis on conservation of national heritage as well as promoting sustainable development, the overall service life of these structures can be extended. The significance of this study lies in recognizing the incompatibilities and potential of viable approaches to rehabilitate the volatile condition of Mashrooteh house. The result of this study will add value to existing sustainable reuse database in Tabriz and other countries in the Middle East region.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
