Description
"Traditionally the process of design has concentrated on the construction phase itself, with the primary objective being to optimise efficiency and minimise costs during development and construction. With the move towards more sustainable development comes the need for this short-term approach to be expanded to encompass the entire service life of the structure." "This book explains how to optimise the structures for the entire design life, through an optimum integrated life cycle design process. Sustainability and performance issues are detailed." "Integrated Life Cycle Design of Structures provides a comprehensive account of this rapidly emerging field. It is essential reading for civil and structural engineers, designers, architects, contractors and clients."--Jacket.
