In today’s society and in the future, there will be pressure from society to continue to make improvements on green building design and construction, and this research aims to advance current green building evaluations. An ancient building, such as, the Roman Pantheon was used for this research because it can provide great insight to ancient design and construction practices, many of which have been forgotten over the years. The green building evaluation first begins with the evaluation of specific green building categories including Site Selection, Use of Water, Energy Conservation, Materials and Resources, Air Quality, and Innovation of Design and Construction. Each category is rated based on the subcategories, which are assigned linguistic rating values. The linguistic values range from extremely non-green to extremely green. After all linguistic ratings are assigned, a weight average is calculated to determine the category rating and the total greenness rating of the Pantheon. While the weighted average can provide a total green building rating for a structure, it does not take into account the unclearly defined linguistic expressions. In order to provide a more realistic green building evaluation, the fuzzy set concept was implemented to calculate the overall greenness rating. The results of this research were that the weighted average and the fuzzy rating did differ in their final rating values. Based on the assessment using the weighted average the Pantheon has a total greenness rating of 1.29 or between fairly green and green, and based upon the fuzzy set concept, the Pantheon has a total rating of [-0.61, 2.01] or between neutral and fairly green. 2016-06-07 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1450699858 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1450699858 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
