摘要

目的 可维护性设计(DfM)是一种将维护目标与设计过程联系起来的建筑技术。在建筑行业采用可维护性设计(DfM)是一种解决方案,可以使建筑物的维护工作更经济、更简单。本研究调查了加纳建筑业(GCI)专业设计人员实施 DfM 的水平。设计/方法/途径通过问卷调查收集了由建筑师和土木/结构工程师组成的专业设计人员的数据。研究结果研究结果表明,在加纳建筑行业中,设计专业人员对 DfM 实践的参与程度很高。这种高度参与归功于设计专业人员对 DfM 概念的高度认识、设计专业人员的教育水平、专业角色经验以及对 DfM 原则的熟悉程度。本研究提高了全球城市设计专业人员对设计资料管理的认识和实施水平。它提供了有关如何应用 DfM 原则提高维护成本效益的信息,从而使设施经得起时间的考验,并证明对用户更有意义。要想使 DfM 概念在全球建筑环境领域深入人心,不同国家对 DfM 的理解和应用非常重要。

Design for maintainability (DfM) implementation among design professionals: empirical evidence from a developing country context
PurposeDesign for maintainability (DfM) is a construction technique that links maintenance objectives with the design process. Adopting DfM within the construction industry is a solution that can make the maintenance of buildings cost-efficient and simpler. This study investigates the level of implementation of DfM among design professionals in the Ghanaian construction industry (GCI).Design/methodology/approachThe data from design professionals comprising architects and civil/structural engineers were collected via a questionnaire survey. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests.FindingsThe findings revealed a high level of engagement of design professionals in DfM practices in the Ghanaian construction sector. This high level of engagement is credited to the high level of awareness of the concept of DfM among design professionals, the level of education of design professionals, experience in professional roles and familiarity with the principles of DfM.Originality/valueThis study offers information and fresh perspectives on how cutting-edge DfM principles are practiced in the GCI. The study raises awareness and the level of DfM implementation among design professionals in the GCI. It offers information on how the application of DfM principles enhances cost-effective maintenance that allows facilities to stand the test of time and prove more relevant for users. The understanding and application of DfM in different countries are important if such concepts are to take deep root in the global built environment sector.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Building Pathology and Adaptation publishes findings on contemporary and original research towards sustaining, maintaining and managing existing buildings. The journal provides an interdisciplinary approach to the study of buildings, their performance and adaptation in order to develop appropriate technical and management solutions. This requires an holistic understanding of the complex interactions between the materials, components, occupants, design and environment, demanding the application and development of methodologies for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment in this multidisciplinary area. With rapid technological developments, a changing climate and more extreme weather, coupled with developing societal demands, the challenges to the professions responsible are complex and varied; solutions need to be rigorously researched and tested to navigate the dynamic context in which today''s buildings are to be sustained. Within this context, the scope and coverage of the journal incorporates the following indicative topics: • Behavioural and human responses • Building defects and prognosis • Building adaptation and retrofit • Building conservation and restoration • Building Information Modelling (BIM) • Building and planning regulations and legislation • Building technology • Conflict avoidance, management and disputes resolution • Digital information and communication technologies • Education and training • Environmental performance • Energy management • Health, safety and welfare issues • Healthy enclosures • Innovations and innovative technologies • Law and practice of dilapidation • Maintenance and refurbishment • Materials testing • Policy formulation and development • Project management • Resilience • Structural considerations • Surveying methodologies and techniques • Sustainability and climate change • Valuation and financial investment
