Abstract
This report presents the development and consolidation of a Life-Cycle Sustainability and Resilience Assessment Framework (LCSA-F) and its operationalization in the SUSTAINOVATE decision-support tool for renovation measures in Swiss multi-family buildings. The work builds directly on the initial framework, where the overall system boundaries, functional unit, domains, criteria, and subcriteria as well as the default weighting profile and the MCDA method were established. In the present Deliverable, this conceptual foundation is translated into a fully specified LCSA framework with pre-modelled data for selected renovation measures and a functioning tool that can be used by practitioners for case-specific assessments.
