Description:
Compared to indicative and investigative postoccupancy evaluations (POEs), diagnostic POEs tend to provide more comprehensive and in-depth evaluations, especially for large-scale projects. These types of POEs, however, typically require a high level of effort since they make use of multiple data collection methodologies and processes. Through the use of a case study analysis, this course reviews the diagnostic POE process, with particular emphasis on the tools and techniques used in the data collection and analysis process. In addition, a review of the evaluators’ suggestions for items to be addressed, along with their potential solutions, is presented. This course is the last of the four-part Improving Building Performance Case Studies series. Each section can be taken as an individual course. This course was last revised in 2021. In 2025, this course was reviewed, and the title was changed. No additional modifications were made.
