Predictive and Optimised Life Cycle Management

<p><em>Predictive and Optimised Life-Cycle Management</em> sets out methodologies to meet the demands of the current trend towards sustainable civil engineering and building.</p><p>Encompassing all aspects of construction practice, from design through to demolition and the recycling of materials, Sarja provides tools for optimal property-value protection, including a description of an integrated and predictive Life-Cycle Maintenance and Management Planning System (LMS), which employs a wide range of techniques.</p><p>Clear and practical, this guide provides effective methodology required to change a reactive system of management to a predictive one, which will benefit practitioners and students involved in construction, from the architect to local and government authorities; from design engineers to facility managers.</p> <p>1.
