Abstract
As the demand for socially responsible practices in the built environment industry increases, incorporating social considerations within building performance evaluation becomes essential. Current building performance evaluation approaches predominantly emphasise environmental performance, lacking a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between social and environmental performances. This paper proposes and explores a conceptual framework for developing a digital twin-enabled approach that facilitates a holistic assessment of building performance, focusing on the interplay between social and environmental performances. The presented framework provides a foundation for developing a digital twin-enabled tool that captures various building performances through live data collection. The paper discusses the underlying technology, data availability, and methods for data collection and incorporation. To demonstrate the applicability of the conceptual framework, an assessment of digital twin operational platforms was conducted. This research addresses challenges in modern building performance evaluation, such as limited scope and focus, insufficient data collection and analysis, and lack of longitudinal studies. This approach integrates performance metrics from various social and environmental assessment methods to contribute towards a more holistic and dynamic understanding of building performance, emphasising the importance of integrating social performance in building performance evaluation and fostering more sustainable, occupant-centric built environments.
