The result from the findings showed among the 12 criteria’s of the functional performance, 9 criteria’s had significant performance (i.e. above the benchmark of 3) and 3 criteria’s had non-significant performance (i.e. below the benchmark of 3).

However, the top three building functional performances are water supply, availability of security, and electricity supply, while the top three technical performances are correctness of staircase, quality of electrical and plumbing fittings, and general noise control.
