Abstract
The sustainable construction and operation of large stadiums has been widely recognized as an important goal. Existing building sustainability evaluation criteria mainly focused on the energy-saving dimension. However, more dimensions (such as economy, intelligence level, conversion difficulty, etc.) that are quite important for multifunctional buildings’ sustainable operation have earned only limited attention. This research aimed to develop a sustainability evaluation system that integrates multidimensional parameters by taking Chinese stadiums as a precursor to influence the assessment criteria for the sustainable operation of local multifunctional buildings. Based on an extensive review of sustainable building assessment methods in the published literature and expert interviews, this research constructed a stadium sustainability performance database as an initial pool of criteria to comprehensively reflect the environmental, social, and economic attributes of stadiums. The indicators and data gathered were evaluated through regression analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) to clarify the impact and weight of indicators in the evaluation system. In addition, the study developed an online visual evaluation platform based on the evaluation system combined with Building Information Modeling (BIM) to assist architects to complete the performance evaluation of the stadium and the prediction of future design. 3 cases of different types of stadiums in China were evaluated to demonstrate the platform interface. The findings of current research will help architects, administrators, and researchers accomplish sustainability in the design, management, and operation of stadiums.
