Abstract

Different maintenance policies and strategies can be adopted to improve the durability and sustainability of buildings. Unplanned maintenance is often carried out in response to failures or users’ demands, being extremely expensive, when the failure of an element is already associated with a serious pathological scenario, and when its failure occurs at a time of economic constraints. The planned maintenance is organised and controlled, intending to increase the performance of the building components and reduce the likelihood of problems that can occur during their service life. To change the attitude “let decay”, the maintenance strategy implemented intends to correct anomalies resulting from use, agents and mechanisms of degradation and the natural aging of materials, guaranteeing reasonable costs and an increased building durability. To analyse the influence of the maintenance strategies on the buildings’ envelope elements, key performance parameters such as durability, life cycle costs and efficiency index, are used.
