Abstract

Life-cycle costing (LCC) is gaining increased attention in the architecture, engineering, construction, and operations industry as a vital methodology for assessing the economic sustainability throughout the lifetime of building projects. LCC has recently became part of procurement policies, certification schemes, and national regulations. Despite the increased attention, the concept faces limited adoption in the design practices due to various challenges of implementation. The Industrial PhD research aims to understand and explain the current practices regarding LCC and provide new insights into the challenges and opportunities of integrating LCC in building design.

This is an article-based PhD thesis written by Maria Saridaki. The PhD research was conducted in an Industrial PhD program that is partially funded by the Danish architectural company Vandkunsten Architects (www.vandkunsten.com) and the Innovation Fund Denmark.
