Abstract
“Green + healthy” buildings aim to achieve the dual objectives of energy conservation and well‐being promotion, significantly contributing to global sustainable development goals (SDGs). As intelligent technologies and construction projects grow increasingly complex, evaluation systems struggle to address stakeholders' diverse needs adequately. This paper utilizes the Quantitative Method of Determining Stakeholder Influence Priorities (QM‐DSIP), Dotmocracy, and other techniques to quantify stakeholder impact on these projects and balance the hierarchical relationships between green and healthy buildings elements, establishing a comprehensive stakeholder‐centric evaluation system for “green + healthy” buildings. Based on questionnaire survey data from nine construction‐related‐stakeholder groups in China, the findings indicate that developers and the government are the most influential stakeholders, while property management companies are the least. The system encompasses 12 primary and 38 secondary indicators, with “health and comfort” and “liveability” receiving the highest weights. In contrast, “mental” ranks lowest among the primary indicators. Among secondaries, “indoor thermal and humidity environment” and “safety” are prioritized, while “space privacy” ranks lowest. Our research, rooted in China but with global aspirations, aims to provide replicable scientific methods and frameworks for participatory evaluations of “green + healthy” buildings tailored to each country's characteristics. It also provides theoretical and practical guidance for the entire life cycle of buildings, including assisting stakeholders like developers in considering key elements and making the right decisions during the design stage, using VR and other means to evaluate and compare unbuilt building schemes, and conducting post‐evaluations of built environments or retrofitted existing buildings, proposing improvement measures.
