In most cases there are no specific and clear design requirements defined in local building codes, the responsibility for appropriate design of military buildings therefore lies primarily on third party design service contractors that are hired upon a short term agreement, whereas government is primarily involved in financing stages and military personnel is solely involved in long term exploitation of these structures. Authors of this paper focus on analyzing and isolating specific requirements for refurbishment of military buildings with regards to their structural reliability, safety, endurance, fire and explosion-resistance, heating, ventilation and air-condition systems performance and efficiency, as well as adding energy efficiency, building performance optimization recommendations and measures in moderate and cold climate conditions.
