Recommendation:
Normalised Performance Matrix
Performance Index = Value_i / Value_TC × 100 · TC = 100 baseline · Lower index = better · ▼ outperforms TC · ▲ underperforms TC
| Dimension & Unit | TC | PF | PP | RS † |
|---|
† RS = partial-scope renovation — not directly comparable to new construction for Time/Cost/Carbon · ‡ Crane: TC=roof crane ×10 d; PF=precast+roof ×21 d; PP=precast+roof ×24 d; RS=0 d (capped at index 0, radar capped 180)
Radar — Adjusted Score (Outer = Better)
Adjusted Score = 200 − Index · Outer ring = best performance · Inner = worse · Index values shown on dots
