Description
"Life Cycle Costing" provides a valuable tool for architects, engineers, surveyors and developers to establish the total costs of an investment decision - maintenance costs, life expectancy etc. With the increasing costs of maintaining and running a building, it is now extremely important that total costs are established at project stage, rather than merely initial capital costs. This new book demonstrates the more advanced applications of life cycle costing in practice.
