Fuzzy Framework for Evaluation Strategies of Climate Change Adaptation on Constructing

Abstract

This study proposes a decision-making model for ranking strategies to eliminate climate change in construction. The triangular fuzzy set deals with uncertain information in the ranking process. Various criteria are used in this study, so the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology is used to deal with these criteria. The TOPSIS method is an MCDM methodology used to rank the alternatives. The TOPSIS method is integrated with triangular fuzzy numbers. The criteria weights are computed by using the average method. The application is applied with 12 criteria and 8 options. The results show that alternative 7 is the best and alternative 3 is the worst. The results are tested with sensitivity analysis to show their stability. The sensitivity analysis was conducted with 13 cases of changing the criteria weights. Then, the TOPSIS method is applied under 13 cases in criteria weights. The results show that the ranking is stable in different cases.
