Asset inventory is an essential part of any building asset management system and is needed by such functions as condition assessment and deterioration prediction. Previous studies in asset management systems have suggested the use of one of the many standard construction classification systems, such as UniFormat or MasterFormat, in achieving the goals of asset management. However, each classification system has its unique features, and it has been developed for different purposes and may not necessarily be directly adaptable to asset management. A proper classification system is thus needed to achieve the goals of building asset management effectively. Such a system must take into consideration the objectives and functions of asset management. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to establish a unified work breakdown structure (WBS)-based framework for building asset inventory.,The WBS-based framework aims to cover the entire lifecycle of an asset so as to provide the unified classification system for asset inventory. The proposed framework is developed based on appropriate building standards. Also, comprehensive levels of details are included for space functions and locations for all assets in any type of building. Furthermore, this framework takes into consideration utilities in any kind of building project. As such, the WBS-based framework proposed in this research endeavor provides the basis for effective asset management. An educational building case study is presented and discussed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework for asset management.,The unified WBS-based framework for building asset management effectively classifies asset inventories and facilitates decision-making in asset management during the lifecycle of an asset.,This research synthesizes a unified WBS-based framework for building asset management, which allows for a more effective lifecycle building asset management.

基于统一工作分解结构的建筑资产管理框架

资产清单是任何建筑资产管理系统的重要组成部分，状态评估和劣化预测等功能都需要资产清单。资产管理系统中的先前研究建议在实现资产管理的目标中使用许多标准构造分类系统之一，例如UniFormat或MasterFormat。但是，每个分类系统都有其独特的功能，并且已针对不同的目的进行开发，并且不一定直接适用于资产管理。因此，需要一个适当的分类系统来有效地实现资产管理的目标。这样的系统必须考虑资产管理的目标和功能。所以，本文的目的是建立基于统一工作分解结构（WBS）的资产清单构建框架。基于WBS的框架旨在涵盖资产的整个生命周期，从而为资产清单提供统一的分类系统。拟议的框架是根据适当的建筑标准开发的。此外，还包括有关空间功能和任何类型建筑物中所有资产的位置的全面详细信息。此外，该框架考虑了任何建筑项目中的实用程序。因此，本研究中提出的基于WBS的框架为有效的资产管理提供了基础。提出并讨论了一个教育建筑案例研究，以证明所提出的资产管理框架的有效性。
