Multi-objective optimisation of building design variables and its impact on office building performance: a case for Ghana

Multi-objective optimisation of building design variables is an appropriate and robust approach in assessing office building performance. Conversely, in developing country contexts like Ghana there is lack of credible building design variables from scientific and technical journals. The main resea...
