Abstract

This paper presents a comparison study of two multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques, including the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the analytic network process (ANP), for evaluating demolition plans. Two MCDM models for demolition plans assessment are introduced using AHP and ANP based on the same criteria of evaluation. Experimental case study is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of using AHP and ANP models to support decision-making in demolition planning. It is concluded that both AHP and ANP are viable and capable tools for demolition plans evaluation; although ANP has its ability to measure relationship among evaluation criteria and their sub-criteria, which is normally ignored in AHP, the comparison result indicates that the conclusion that whether the ANP can provide a more accurate result should be examined in further research.
