LifeCycle Cost Analysis of a Mass Timber Building

concrete alternative. It was found, not unexpectedly, that the mass timber building with premium energy and water saving designs exhibited a lower total lifecycle cost (TLCC) than a concrete building for a 60year study period under provided research assumptions and limitations. The construction cost dominated the TLCCs for both buildings.

Benefits of Concrete

The longest lifecycle. Across the country, concrete roadways that were designed to last 20 years have instead lasted 50 years or more with minimal repairs. Longterm savings. Concrete has the lowest total ownership cost and requires less maintenance than asphalt. Breathe new life into existing systems. Concrete overlays help preserve and rehabilitate existing systems such .

LIFECYCLE COSTS

Lifecycle costs are equal to the total present discounted value of all constrnction and maintenance costs incuned each year over the entire lifetime of the road. The total present discounted value can be interpreted as the amount of money you would need in the bank today to cover the costs of the road for its tenyear life.

The deterioration of concrete cooling towers and the cost of repairing, rehabilitating, or replacing deteriorated tower structures is a major issue for tower owners and operators. This paper explores the appliion of a LifeCycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) as a useful tool to predict and schedule maintenance and repair tasks for concrete cooling towers.
