This book provides a comprehensive overview of Building Performance Evaluation (BPE), addressing the growing need for effective assessment methods in the context of rapid urban development and the demand for healthier, more sustainable built environments. It introduces the BPESystem, a structured framework for evaluating building performance throughout the entire building life cycle, and explains its underlying concepts, methodology, and application process. The book examines BPE from a product development perspective and demonstrates the practical implementation of BPESystem through case studies involving residential buildings, light wood-frame constructions, healthcare facilities, and educational buildings. By combining methodological foundations with real-world applications, the book offers valuable insights for researchers, practitioners, and professionals involved in building design, construction, operation, and performance assessment.
