Abstract
This paper presents the assessment of masonry wall defects in residential buildings in Lithuania. The created model is based on a multi-attribute evaluation of wall defects in residential buildings in Lithuania, the determination of their optimality criterion values calculated according to Laplace’o rule. The developed defect assessment algorithm has advantages to be used by repair contractors and people or companies performing building maintenance. First, the model allows planning the course of repair works properly. When carrying out repair work in a building with recurring defects that mainly occur at the building site, proper workflow and its planning are essential. The proposed model could be applied further to a building owner to select the most damaged walls. A background and a description of the proposed model are provided, and several key findings from the data analyses are presented.
