摘要

This study explores the proposal of a new evaluation model for the sustainable rehabilitation of school buildings, emphasizing their transformation into innovative, efficient, and inclusive environments. The research addresses the growing need for sustainable practices in civil construction, focusing on environmental, social, and economic dimensions to modernize aging infrastructure and align with contemporary educational demands. A methodology for its development is presented and underpins the research, involving a bibliographic survey, model development, and future practical application to assess energy efficiency, water management, environmental comfort and accessibility factors. The theoretical framework emphasizes sustainable construction principles and their adaptation to the particular requirements of school buildings. The analysis identifies gaps in existing evaluation models, such as LEED and BREEAM, which do not sufficiently address the intensive use, accessibility, and pedagogical needs of educational buildings. While these models are effective in many aspects, they often overlook the specific demands of school buildings, highlighting the need for a more tailored approach. The proposed methodology of evaluation still in progress will integrate qualitative and quantitative evaluations, applying innovative technologies such as thermal insulation, renewable energy systems, and rainwater reuse. The findings underline the social advantages of enhanced learning conditions, which can significantly impact the lives of students and teachers. This research will contribute to bridging methodological gaps, proposing a new tailored approach for the sustainable rehabilitation of educational infrastructures with significant implications for education and environmental stewardship.
