Abstract

Contemporary societies have shifted their focus towards sustainable and resilient public buildings, transcending the institutional and functional role of the physical structures. School buildings remain the second highest expenditure of municipalities' total running costs. The impact on well-being and improved knowledge, and the average lifespan of school buildings, imply the necessity to pay special attention to its expected performance from the early design phase.
