Conejos, Sheila (2013) Designing for future building adaptive reuse. PhD thesis, Bond University, Australia.
Abstract
This research identifies a knowledge gap pertaining to an absence of clear criteria for future adaptive reuse and the lack of consensus as how to maximise adaptive reuse potential. It is an explorative study and retrospectively analyses successful adaptive reuse projects with a view to establishing and testing a multi-criteria decision-making model that can be applied to new design projects.

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
