Objetivo específico 4

The research concludes that a hybrid solution, tailor-made for a specific building of a specific typology, in a specific site is the most effective method for retrofitting urban flood resilience at the building scale. The DSM tool would benefit from more branches within the criteria to become more specific. When there are multiple indicators people are better equipped to choose the best path to achieve a specific goal. A more refined DSM would provide insight to which strategies are the most useful, given a specific situation, to reflect time, the continuum between non-operation, temporary and full-operation. Time being a critical component to the resilience of a building and overall community.

In further development, this type of research could turn into a web-based application, universally accessible to help make existing urban buildings more resilient to flooding disasters worldwide. By using modules to depict unique data sets of buildings (how many floors, square footage per floor, basement, etc.), a program could run a cost-benefit analysis.

The web-based tools would be to the benefit of people from an array of disciplines and economic status. A downloadable program or application that requires an installation is clumsy and becomes obsolete too quickly with the rate of technological advancements. Web-based tools have the benefit of being updated and accessed across platforms (computers and tablets) instantaneously.
