Description of the CBA determinants
| Determinant | Brief description |
|---|---|
| Configuration flexibility | The capacity to reconfigure the layout of spaces without using external resources and producing waste |
| Product dismantlability | The capacity to dismantle components and products in a building without inflicting damage and producing waste, so that they can be reused in the building or another building |
| Asset multi-usability | The capacity to offer a multiplicity of the use of building assets, so that maximising the efficiency of their utilisation |
| Design regularity | The capacity to provide a regular pattern in the spatial layout and composition of the physical assets in the building, so that facilitating the reuse and remanufacturing of the building components and products afterwards |
| Functional convertibility | The capacity to repurpose the function of a building or part of it, so that promoting its longevity while keeping its value |
| Material reversibility | The capacity to efficiently provide, use and reuse the materials in the building within a reversible value chain |
| Building maintainability | The capacity to prolong the utility of the building assets and sustain their performance |
| Resource recovery | The capacity to regenerate the building resources in a manner that reduces the use of new materials and energy consumption |
| Volume scalability | The capacity to increase and decrease the size of a building and its spaces in a response to the demands of user or organisation, so that alleviating the shortage and redundancy in the spatial use of the building |
| Asset refit-ability | The capacity to efficiently provide state-of-the-art building assets and technologies, while avoiding waste generation or over-invested solutions |
