Resumen
The study focuses on developing a methodology for calculating an integrated quality index of administrative and engineering solutions that affect the safety of multi-storey residential buildings at each stage of their lifecycle. This method can be used to design a tool for assessing the integrated quality of multi-storey residential buildings at each stage of production. Advanced quality assessment methods were analyzed within the framework of this study. The analysis led to the conclusion that the most relevant problem is the lack of an integrated approach to the quality assessment of multi-storey residential buildings. Having studied an extensive number of research works, the authors identified the main parameters that affect the quality of a construction facility. The aims of the study were to (1) develop an integrated quality index for multi-storey residential buildings (this index is to be applicable as early as at the stage of pre-construction arrangements); (2) develop methods for calculating and evaluating the integrated quality index for high-rise residential buildings at the stage of construction arrangements; (3) improve the efficiency of administrative and engineering solutions; and (4) devise a mathematical model that will identify the numerical value of the proposed multi-factor criteria. The research results show the feasibility and expediency of introducing this methodology in residential construction as it allows for a comprehensive measurement and quality assessment of high-rise residential buildings.
