Abstract

Buildings maintenance has received increasing international attention in various fields of scientific research. As a result, the maintenance of buildings has changed from the preventive to the predictive approach. This is done through an evaluation model to support and assist the management of the facility in selecting alternatives and making appropriate decisions in maintenance according to building status and maintenance budget. This chapter investigated the reasons for the electrical maintenance of the university buildings and the degree of importance of each element of electrical maintenance through the design of a questionnaire in which the electrical components were divided into elements and then each element was linked to all maintenance items that related to it. At the end of the research, mathematical models were developed, and they help to forecast the electrical maintenance items and distribution of the maintenance budget, and to verify the validity of these models. The models have been applied to study the case of dorm buildings in Tishreen University.
