Introduction - definitions
of 754
• An evaluation is “the process of examining a system or system
component to determine the extent to which specified properties are
present”
• Overall satisfaction of the end users is more important in housing
performance evaluation
• Post Occupancy Evaluation is qualified by a range of alternative
terms such as:
• “Building-In-Use Studies”,
• “Building Diagnostics”
• “Building Pathology”
• “Building Evaluation”
• “Building Appraisal”
.
Introduction – definitions/2
of 755
• Preiser et al., 1988 defines POE as “the process of evaluating
buildings in a systematic and rigorous manner after they have been
built and occupied for some time”
• A more specific definition is given by Watson, 2003 as “a
systematic evaluation of opinion about buildings in use, from the
perspective of the people who use them”
• There are three perspectives to the evaluation of buildings:
 Occupants, and how well their needs are met
 Environmental performance, normally energy and
water efficiency
 Whether the building makes economic sense, such as
value for money or return on investment
.
Introduction – common building performance problems
of 756
• Health and safety problems;
• Security problems;
• Leakage;
• Poor signage and way finding problems;
• Poor air circulation and temperature control;
• Handicapped accessibility problems;
• Lack of storage;
• Lack of privacy;
• Hallway blockage;
• Aesthetic problems;
• Entry door problems with wind and accumulation of dirt;
• Inadequacy of designing space for equipment;
• Maintainability of glass surfaces (e.g. skywalks or inaccessible skylights).
.
Introduction – Uses of POE
of 757
• It creates a platform to understand the needs and desires of building users and thus provide more
suiting environments to accommodate those needs
• Successes and errors are identified, to determine what needs to be repeated and what needs to be
avoided in future designs
• To identify problem areas in existing buildings, to test new building prototypes and to develop
design guidance and criteria for future facilities
• Lowering facility lifecycle costs by identifying design errors that could lead to increased
maintenance and operating costs
• Ensures accountability and responsibility on the part of housing managers, designers and policy
makers
• Through a POE study much ideas and solution are developed to achieve buildings’ sustainability
• Beneficiaries of a POE study include:
• designers wanting to avoid past mistakes;
• educators passing the knowledge on to students;
• existing and prospective building owners, occupiers, developers and managers;
• and policy makers looking for the best way forward
.
Introduction – Frameworks and Models

.
Statement of the Problem
of 7510
• Re-occurring failure of housing projects is due to the lack of feed-back and lessons-learned derived
from the end-users’ or occupants’ perspective
• Few POE-studies of domestic housing facilities
• Impartial/Incomprehensive studies carried out so far
• Holistic approaches to POE should be given priority in the property sector
• An inevitable “fine-tuning” process takes place after the completion and occupation of a facility (in
this case AL-Marooj)
.

the questionnaire development and making recommendations
• A list of problems reported by occupants of the residential housing facility to the
campus maintenance department was used in this study as a substitute for the
maintenance work order.
• Examples of reported issues include:
• “Lighting in the first floor of the houses is excellent. However, it is relatively
poor upstairs in the bedrooms”
• “The size of the bathroom in the master bedroom is small”
• “No smoke detector and no fire alarm”

• 12.4 'Quality of materials used in floors',
• 1.3 'indoor temperature shifts‘
of 7562
Focus Group Meetings
• The following issues were discussed with four occupants of AlMarooj courts, including:
a Sudanese; a Saudi; a Pakistani and an Egyptian
• 'HVAC system';
• 'lightning system';
• 'size of maid's bedroom';
• 'size of washroom in masters bedroom';
• 'availability of shower facility on the ground floor';
• 'availability of parks and open spaces';
• 'privacy';
• 'use of driver's lodge'.
of 7563
Focus Group Meetings
• The results of the discussions about these issues are summarized as follows:
• Performance of HVAC system: it was discovered that noise and control of the thermostat are the main
issues with the HVAC system.
• Lighting system: amount of lightning in the bedrooms is inadequate.
• Size of maid's bedroom: need to increase the size of the maid's bedroom to accommodate some
furniture including: a bed and wardrobe.
• Size of washroom in master's bedroom: height of the bath-tub and inadequate spacing between the
facilities in the washroom.
• Availability of shower facility on the ground floor: one of the washroom facilities in the ground floor
should be redesigned to include a shower facility.
• Availability of parks and open spaces: not a matter of priority since other housing courts within the
campus have such facilities which are easily accessible to all.
• Privacy: this was identified as one of the major issues that all building occupants agree on. It was
suggested that the design should be reviewed to take this issue into consideration.
• The driver's lodge: some occupants might have privacy concerns if the drivers lodge was utilized while
others are eager to use this facility for the convenience of their drivers
of 7564
Expert Interviews for POE Recommendations
• To generate valuable and realistic recommendations, a design office with a
huge experience in design and consultancy for residential compounds in Saudi
Arabia was consulted.
• An interview was conducted with an architect/project manager and also
HVAC engineer to generate and validate solutions to problems identified by
the study
of 7565
Architectural Design/Construction
• A shower facility on the ground floor should be provided to be of potential service to the disabled, old-aged
and guests. It is recommended that the washroom facility opposite the reception on the ground floor can be
modified to incorporate a shower facility.
• Noise between spaces can be controlled with the use of block walls of 45-50dB sound resistance. The type
of carpets and furniture in the living space can also be selected to serve as sound proof.
• 40% of the total size of the estate should be set aside to provide facilities such as children playground areas,
communal greenery, landscaping and paving, parks and reserves.
• The maid's bedroom as well all living rooms should have a minimum size of 3m X 3m. Space for the maid's
room can be created by adjusting the size of the stair and adjacent room. See first floor plan, appendix C.
• Increase the size of washroom facility in the master bedroom. A minimum size of 3m X 4m should be
provided. With sufficient spacing between toilet facilities.
• Toilet paper dispenser should be at the right hand side of the user and reachable within an arm's length.
• Accessibility to disabled and aged people should be provided by incorporating ramps at exits and grabs in
washroom facilities. It is recommended that at least one of the wash room facilities at the ground floor should
be designed for people with limited mobility according to universal design standards.
POE Recommendations
of 7566
Safety and Security
• Provide security system such as surveillance camera, and burglar alarms
• Electricity panel boards should be accessible for cases of emergency and kept away from children's
reach
• Provide speed controls like bumps and speed limit signs to reduce over speeding within the estate
• Prevent the entry of insects and ants by proper sealing of door edges
• Appropriate safety measures should be provided for gas outlets in kitchen
• Provide sprinklers, smoke, fire alarms and heat detection systems according to IBC, 2012 and
NFPA code requirements
POE Recommendations
of 7567
Furniture, Fixtures and Equipments (FF & E)
• Ensure lighting levels meet up to the required standards
• Maid's room as well as all other rooms should have minimum required
• Provide 3-pin large 220V adaptors for all outlets
• Provide high quality exterior wood or metal doors. And ensure exterior doors are well sealed
• Each washroom facility should have a water control valve aside the centralized valve existing for flexibility
• Provide sweet water in all faucets, otherwise salinity of water should be controlled for domestic use. The
World Health Organisation recommends 1500 mg/ L as the maximum level for human consumption, though
over 1000 mg/L may be associated with excessive scaling, corrosion and unsatisfactory taste.
POE Recommendations
of 7568
HVAC
• Create more zones for thermostat control. Alternatively multi thermostats can be used. Or the thermostats
can be located in a strategic position where the
• Temperature represents the average temperature in the representative zone. It should be removed from the
hallway.
• The HVAC filter should be checked for clogging as well as the internal pressure within the building to
ascertain the cause of dusts
• HVAC contractor should do a testing and balancing exercise to control air flow and review maintenance
program. In this exercise, the capacity (temperature and air flow), air balance and air distribution should be
measured, and subsequently recommendations should be provided to facilitate even distribution of
temperature and minimize indoor temperature shifts.
• The HVAC system should be evaluated for potential noise sources like vibration
POE Recommendations
of 7569
Quality Assurance
• Improve on the quality of construction materials and supervision of construction work for kitchen and
bathroom tiles.
• Specify paints that can resist wear due to humidity like enamel paints. And
• Specifications should be adhered to.
• Ensure quality damp-proof is specified, and they are well joint in construction and not damaged to prevent
water leakage in roof and first floor.
• Ensure compaction of surrounding grounds before laying of concrete slabs to stop the breakage of the slabs
due to differential settlement.
• Quality supervision in construction of bath-tubs to be within the maximum height of 645mm, should be
ensured for ease of use
• Provide high quality of hinges, locks and toilet fixtures which are corrosion resistant
• Ensure quality review of design/construction to match standards
POE Recommendations
of 7570
Maintenance and Management
• Extractor fans should be well maintained to reduce dust and noise
• Provide pipe chase for water lines to avoid demolition during maintenance and leakage repair
• Review network design to speed-up hot water delivery at faucets in winter.
• Alternatively a "point of use" hot water system can be installed.
• Review maintenance plan for water heaters due to its frequent dysfunction
• Review HVAC maintenance program. Preventive Maintenance (PM) once or twice a month is preferred. A
PM checklist should be developed and results from the exercise be provided to the administration at regular
intervals
• Improve on speed, efficiency and frequency of maintenance
• Responsibility for repair and replace should be taken by maintenance department
POE Recommendations
of 7571
General
• Provide fast, reliable and efficient maintenance response
• Improve on design and construction quality
• Improve general aesthetic appearance and construction finishing
• Employ universal design (UD) standards to ensure adequate support for people with limited mobility
POE Recommendations
of 7572
Conclusions
• Objective 1: develop a holistic framework for Post Occupancy Evaluation of
Residential housing facilities.
• Objective 2: apply the POE framework to a case-study of the newly occupied Al-
Marooj Courts at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals.
• A holistic evaluation of residential housing facilities provides a "rich picture" of
conflicting as well as corroborating viewpoints for a robust and more realistic decision
making process for facility managers, housing administrator, designers, engineers and
all stakeholders of the building and construction industry
of 7573
Conclusions
• Project and Facility managers in particular and stake-holders of the built environment
in general should pay more attention to POE studies for residential housing
developments.
• POEs should be carried out periodically for residential compounds in the same
geographic location and results and recommendations should be systematically
documented to create a domain. To facilitate performance benchmarking, improve
quality and serve as a wealth of resource for the construction professional practice.
• Workshops and training sessions on POE should be encouraged in the industry
• Results from POE studies should also be shared amongst the stakeholders of a
residential housing development so that knowledge is effectively transferred.
of 7574
Conclusions
• Professional bodies in construction and sustainable housing development should seek
to develop POE tool kits for their professional members for ease of its application,
uniformity in procedure and effective feed-back and feed forward.
The following are future research suggested based on knowledge from this study:
• It is suggested that another research be carried out to further validate the framework
in an attempt to standardize it.
• Another research will be to apply the framework in this paper on a separate case
study and thus compare its findings with the findings of this study.
• Also a research that will develop a similar framework for multi-family residential
buildings is suggested. It will contain some unique performance indicators like lifts,
shared areas, balconies etc.
• A long term work where the POE holistic tool can be applied to a large number of
case studies to create a publicly-accessible domain for benchmarking and effective feed-
forward of knowledge to the construction industry.

  • 1. Muizz O. Sanni-Anibire Architectural Engineering Department King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals muizzanibire10@gmail.com +966501296203
  • 2. • Introduction • Statement of the Problem • Research Objective • Research Methodology • Case Study – Al-Marooj Courts • POE Framework Methodology • POE Framework Tool (Questionnaire) • Findings • Expert Questionnaire Survey • Review of Existing Documents • Spot Measurements • Occupants Questionnaire • Importance-Satisfaction (IS) Matrix • Residential Satisfaction Index • Inferential Statistics • Focus Group Meetings • POE recommendations • Conclusion Contents of 753
  • 3. . Introduction - definitions of 754 • An evaluation is “the process of examining a system or system component to determine the extent to which specified properties are present” • Overall satisfaction of the end users is more important in housing performance evaluation • Post Occupancy Evaluation is qualified by a range of alternative terms such as: • “Building-In-Use Studies”, • “Building Diagnostics” • “Building Pathology” • “Building Evaluation” • “Building Appraisal”
  • 4. . Introduction – definitions/2 of 755 • Preiser et al., 1988 defines POE as “the process of evaluating buildings in a systematic and rigorous manner after they have been built and occupied for some time” • A more specific definition is given by Watson, 2003 as “a systematic evaluation of opinion about buildings in use, from the perspective of the people who use them” • There are three perspectives to the evaluation of buildings:  Occupants, and how well their needs are met  Environmental performance, normally energy and water efficiency  Whether the building makes economic sense, such as value for money or return on investment
  • 5. . Introduction – common building performance problems of 756 • Health and safety problems; • Security problems; • Leakage; • Poor signage and way finding problems; • Poor air circulation and temperature control; • Handicapped accessibility problems; • Lack of storage; • Lack of privacy; • Hallway blockage; • Aesthetic problems; • Entry door problems with wind and accumulation of dirt; • Inadequacy of designing space for equipment; • Maintainability of glass surfaces (e.g. skywalks or inaccessible skylights).
  • 6. . Introduction – Uses of POE of 757 • It creates a platform to understand the needs and desires of building users and thus provide more suiting environments to accommodate those needs • Successes and errors are identified, to determine what needs to be repeated and what needs to be avoided in future designs • To identify problem areas in existing buildings, to test new building prototypes and to develop design guidance and criteria for future facilities • Lowering facility lifecycle costs by identifying design errors that could lead to increased maintenance and operating costs • Ensures accountability and responsibility on the part of housing managers, designers and policy makers • Through a POE study much ideas and solution are developed to achieve buildings’ sustainability • Beneficiaries of a POE study include: • designers wanting to avoid past mistakes; • educators passing the knowledge on to students; • existing and prospective building owners, occupiers, developers and managers; • and policy makers looking for the best way forward
  • 7. . Introduction – Frameworks and Models of 758 POE models for sustainability: Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) GBTool, BREEAM, EcoSmart POE models for quality: Housing Quality Indicator (HQI) Construction Industry Council Design Quality Indicators (CIC DQIs) QUALITEL QUARQ POE models for higher education: Hassanain et al., 2010 presents a generic framework HEDQF (Higher Education Design Quality Forum) AUDE (Association of University Directors of Estates) “De Monfort” approach
  • 8. . Introduction – Levels of Investigation of 759
  • 9. . Statement of the Problem of 7510 • Re-occurring failure of housing projects is due to the lack of feed-back and lessons-learned derived from the end-users’ or occupants’ perspective • Few POE-studies of domestic housing facilities • Impartial/Incomprehensive studies carried out so far • Holistic approaches to POE should be given priority in the property sector • An inevitable “fine-tuning” process takes place after the completion and occupation of a facility (in this case AL-Marooj)
  • 10. . Research Objective of 7511 Develop a holistic framework for post-occupancy evaluation of residential housing facilities. Apply the developed POE framework to a case study of the newly-occupied Al-Marooj Courts at the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals.

  • 63. of 7564 Expert Interviews for POE Recommendations • To generate valuable and realistic recommendations, a design office with a huge experience in design and consultancy for residential compounds in Saudi Arabia was consulted. • An interview was conducted with an architect/project manager and also HVAC engineer to generate and validate solutions to problems identified by the study
  • 64. of 7565 Architectural Design/Construction • A shower facility on the ground floor should be provided to be of potential service to the disabled, old-aged and guests. It is recommended that the washroom facility opposite the reception on the ground floor can be modified to incorporate a shower facility. • Noise between spaces can be controlled with the use of block walls of 45-50dB sound resistance. The type of carpets and furniture in the living space can also be selected to serve as sound proof. • 40% of the total size of the estate should be set aside to provide facilities such as children playground areas, communal greenery, landscaping and paving, parks and reserves. • The maid's bedroom as well all living rooms should have a minimum size of 3m X 3m. Space for the maid's room can be created by adjusting the size of the stair and adjacent room. See first floor plan, appendix C. • Increase the size of washroom facility in the master bedroom. A minimum size of 3m X 4m should be provided. With sufficient spacing between toilet facilities. • Toilet paper dispenser should be at the right hand side of the user and reachable within an arm's length. • Accessibility to disabled and aged people should be provided by incorporating ramps at exits and grabs in washroom facilities. It is recommended that at least one of the wash room facilities at the ground floor should be designed for people with limited mobility according to universal design standards. POE Recommendations
  • 65. of 7566 Safety and Security • Provide security system such as surveillance camera, and burglar alarms • Electricity panel boards should be accessible for cases of emergency and kept away from children's reach • Provide speed controls like bumps and speed limit signs to reduce over speeding within the estate • Prevent the entry of insects and ants by proper sealing of door edges • Appropriate safety measures should be provided for gas outlets in kitchen • Provide sprinklers, smoke, fire alarms and heat detection systems according to IBC, 2012 and NFPA code requirements POE Recommendations

And ensure exterior doors are well sealed • Each washroom facility should have a water control valve aside the centralized valve existing for flexibility • Provide sweet water in all faucets, otherwise salinity of water should be controlled for domestic use. The World Health Organisation recommends 1500 mg/ L as the maximum level for human consumption, though over 1000 mg/L may be associated with excessive scaling, corrosion and unsatisfactory taste. POE Recommendations
  • 67. of 7568 HVAC • Create more zones for thermostat control. Alternatively multi thermostats can be used. Or the thermostats can be located in a strategic position where the • Temperature represents the average temperature in the representative zone. It should be removed from the hallway. • The HVAC filter should be checked for clogging as well as the internal pressure within the building to ascertain the cause of dusts • HVAC contractor should do a testing and balancing exercise to control air flow and review maintenance program. In this exercise, the capacity (temperature and air flow), air balance and air distribution should be measured, and subsequently recommendations should be provided to facilitate even distribution of temperature and minimize indoor temperature shifts. • The HVAC system should be evaluated for potential noise sources like vibration POE Recommendations
  • 68. of 7569 Quality Assurance • Improve on the quality of construction materials and supervision of construction work for kitchen and bathroom tiles. • Specify paints that can resist wear due to humidity like enamel paints. And • Specifications should be adhered to. • Ensure quality damp-proof is specified, and they are well joint in construction and not damaged to prevent water leakage in roof and first floor. • Ensure compaction of surrounding grounds before laying of concrete slabs to stop the breakage of the slabs due to differential settlement. • Quality supervision in construction of bath-tubs to be within the maximum height of 645mm, should be ensured for ease of use • Provide high quality of hinges, locks and toilet fixtures which are corrosion resistant • Ensure quality review of design/construction to match standards POE Recommendations
  • 69. of 7570 Maintenance and Management • Extractor fans should be well maintained to reduce dust and noise • Provide pipe chase for water lines to avoid demolition during maintenance and leakage repair • Review network design to speed-up hot water delivery at faucets in winter. • Alternatively a "point of use" hot water system can be installed. • Review maintenance plan for water heaters due to its frequent dysfunction • Review HVAC maintenance program. Preventive Maintenance (PM) once or twice a month is preferred. A PM checklist should be developed and results from the exercise be provided to the administration at regular intervals • Improve on speed, efficiency and frequency of maintenance • Responsibility for repair and replace should be taken by maintenance department POE Recommendations
  • 70. of 7571 General • Provide fast, reliable and efficient maintenance response • Improve on design and construction quality • Improve general aesthetic appearance and construction finishing • Employ universal design (UD) standards to ensure adequate support for people with limited mobility POE Recommendations
  • 71. of 7572 Conclusions • Objective 1: develop a holistic framework for Post Occupancy Evaluation of Residential housing facilities. • Objective 2: apply the POE framework to a case-study of the newly occupied Al- Marooj Courts at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals. • A holistic evaluation of residential housing facilities provides a "rich picture" of conflicting as well as corroborating viewpoints for a robust and more realistic decision making process for facility managers, housing administrator, designers, engineers and all stakeholders of the building and construction industry
  • 72. of 7573 Conclusions • Project and Facility managers in particular and stake-holders of the built environment in general should pay more attention to POE studies for residential housing developments. • POEs should be carried out periodically for residential compounds in the same geographic location and results and recommendations should be systematically documented to create a domain. To facilitate performance benchmarking, improve quality and serve as a wealth of resource for the construction professional practice. • Workshops and training sessions on POE should be encouraged in the industry • Results from POE studies should also be shared amongst the stakeholders of a residential housing development so that knowledge is effectively transferred.
  • 73. of 7574 Conclusions • Professional bodies in construction and sustainable housing development should seek to develop POE tool kits for their professional members for ease of its application, uniformity in procedure and effective feed-back and feed forward. The following are future research suggested based on knowledge from this study: • It is suggested that another research be carried out to further validate the framework in an attempt to standardize it. • Another research will be to apply the framework in this paper on a separate case study and thus compare its findings with the findings of this study. • Also a research that will develop a similar framework for multi-family residential buildings is suggested. It will contain some unique performance indicators like lifts, shared areas, balconies etc. • A long term work where the POE holistic tool can be applied to a large number of case studies to create a publicly-accessible domain for benchmarking and effective feed- forward of knowledge to the construction industry.
