Abstract
Store buildings usually have distinct characteristics of significant depth, high human density and heat-emitting sources, a high simultaneity usage coefficient for the air conditioning system, etc. The aim of this paper is to develop a rational rating method for green stores. By comparing the commonly used evaluation methods of green buildings, an assessment method for green store buildings in China has been developed. This method references the rating requirements set by the “China Green Building Evaluation Standard” and weighted credits for each category. This method attempts to avoid the effect of “imbalanced performance” when labeling green buildings. The Expert Group Decision AHP method has been used to develop the weighting system for green store buildings. The weight distributions highlight the importance of indoor environmental quality, energy efficiency and operation management within store buildings.
