An architectural means of optimal daylight distribution is by using so-called light shelf systems, horizontal shading and redirecting devices. The overall performance of the daylighting system can be improved by the incorporation with electric lighting control devices. This paper aims to exemplify the benefit of daylighting in term of economic consideration. In such a case a reasonable technique to compare system costs is by life-cycle costing. Stated simply, a life-cycle cost represents the total cost of a system over its entire life cycle, that is, the sum of first cost and all future costs. Four different electric lighting system designs are proposed and a lighting control system that is continuously operating according to the level of daylight in the space has been adapted. The result shows clearly that although denser layout of lighting fixtures might be more effective to interface to the level of daylight ceaselessly changeable, its economic benefit may not meet the expected criterion the reason of increased initial investment and maintenance cost for the fixtures and control devices.

Attention on daylighting should be focused not so much on a simple maximization of the natural light available in a space, as on improving the quality of lighting by ensuring as even but intense distribution of illumination in inner areas. An architectural means of optimal daylight distribution is by using so-called light shelf systems, horizontal shading and redirecting devices. The overall performance of the daylighting system can be improved by the incorporation with electric lighting control devices. This paper aims to exemplify the benefit of daylighting in term of economic consideration. In such a case a reasonable technique to compare system costs is by life-cycle costing. Stated simply, a life-cycle cost represents the total cost of a system over its entire life cycle, that is, the sum of first cost and all future costs.

The result shows clearly that although denser layout of lighting fixtures might be more effective to interface to the level of daylight ceaselessly changeable, its economic benefit may not meet the expected criterion the reason of increased initial investment and maintenance cost for the fixtures and control devices.

This paper presents a method to minimize Life-Cycle Cost(LCC) of steel box girders. The LCC function considered in this paper includes initial cost, expected life-cycle maintenance cost and repair cost. A resistance force curve is derived from a condition grade curve of steel girders and optimal design of steel box girders is performed on the basis of derived resistance force curve. Also, in this paper annual costs of various case in LCC are compared and analyzed. It is concluded that the optimal design of steel box girders considering LCC by a presented method will lead to more economical and safer girders than conventional design.

There has been growing interests in life-cycle project management in the construction industry. A lot of attention is given to Building Information Modeling (BIM) which stores and uses a variety of construction information for the life cycle of project management. However, due to the additional workload arising from BIM, its expected effects versus its input costs are still under discussion in practice. As an attempt to address this issue, one of previous studies suggested an automated linking process by developing Standard Classification Numbering System (SCNS) and Geometry Breakdown Structure (GBS) to enhance the efficiency of integration process of BIM objects, cost, and schedule. Though SCNS and GBS facilitates identifying all different dataset, making object sets and linking schedule activities still needs to be manually done without having an automated tool. In this context, the purpose of this paper is to develop and validate a fully automated integration system for 3D-objects, cost, and schedule. A prototype system for single family homes (Hanok) was developed and tested in order to verify its efficiency.

본 논문에서는 생애주기비용뿐만 아니라 생애주기성능 조건을 함께 고려하여 열화되는 교량의 최적 유지관리 전략 수립을 위한 보다 실제적이고 현실적인 방법을 제안하였다. 교량의 성능 및 비용과 관련된 다중목적 조합 최적화 문제인 교량 유지관리 시나리오 집합의 생성을 위해 유전자 알고리즘을 적용하였으며, 다중목적함수에 대한 최적의 균형 잡힌 유지관리 시나리오의 선정이 가능한 기법을 제안하였다. 최적 유지관리 시나리오는 부재수준뿐만 아니라 교량 시스템 수준에서도 생성 가능하도록 하였다. 실제 공용중인 교량에 적용하여 제안된 방법의 실 적용성을 검증하고 분석하였다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 유지관리방법의 한계를 극복하고, 실질적인 예방유지관리체계의 도입을 위한 교량 유지관리 의사결정에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 논문에서는 강박스 거더의 생애주기비용을 최소화하기 위한 방법을 제시하였다. 본 논문에서 고려된 강박스 거더의 생애주기비용은 초기비용, 유지관리비용 및 보수비용으로 구성되었다. 강재 주형의 상태등급곡선과 안전진단 결과 측정된 내하력을 바탕으로 내하력곡선을 추정하였으며, 이 곡선을 이용하여 생애주비용을 고려한 강박스 거더의 최적설계를 수행하였다. 또한 내하력곡선을 통해 강박스 거더의 공용수명과 보수 보강 시기 및 횟수를 결정하고 초기 내하력에 따른 생애주기 동안 발생하는 연간비용을 비교, 분석하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 생애주기비용을 고려한 강박스 거더의 최적설계를 통하여 기존의 설계에 비해 보다 경제적이며 안전한 설계를 유도할 수 있으리라 판단된다.

This paper considers the maintenance model suggested by Jung and Park (2010) to adopt the Bayesian approach and obtain an optimal replacement policy following the expiration of NFRRW. As the criteria to determine the optimal maintenance period, we use the expected cost during the life cycle of the system. When the failure times are assumed to follow a Weibull distribution with unknown parameters, we propose an optimal maintenance policy based on the Bayesian approach. Also, we describe the revision of uncertainty about parameters in the light of data observed. Some numerical examples are presented for illustrative purpose.

철도노선은 도로노선과 달리 운행비용, 특히 에너지비용이 전체 생애주기 비용에서 차지하는 비중이 높은 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 경부고속철도의 사례를 중심으로 철도 노반건설비와 에너지비용의 상대적 비중을 분석하였다. 이는 최근 활발하게 연구가 이루어지고 있는 전산화된 철도선형 최적화가 단순히 건설비 최소화만을 목적으로 할 수 없으며, 에너지 비용을 포함한 전반적인 생애주기 비용의 최소화를 목표로 하여야 함을 의미한다. 경부고속철도 운행실적이 아직 10년에 불과하기 때문에 향후 20년간의 운영 시나리오를 다양하게 설정하여 분석한 결과, 에너지비용이 건설비용의 10~30% 수준으로 나타났으며, 이는 일반적으로 알려진 비중보다 낮은 수치이다. 철도 선형 최적화를 위한 방법론 정립에 있어 에너지 비용을 고려할 경우, 그 상대적 비중을 고려할 수 있는 방안을 제시한데 본 연구의 의미가 있을 것이다.

A gutter-shaped U grating is a facility that is installed at the sides of a road to provide pedestrians with a rainwater-free road. The previous studies on this facility focused mainly on the progress of the efforts that are being made to improve its performance and interception efficiency so as to prevent damages in regional areas due to the heavy rains caused by climate change. The studies on its maintenance, however, are still inadequate. Therefore, this study was conducted to analyze and compare the life cycle costs and performance evaluations of the steel and magic gratings, which are installed in apartments. The results of the study show that the replacement period and rate of gratings differ depending on where they are installed. The initial capital investment cost of a magic grating installed at a road where many vehicles pass is quite high, but in terms of its maintenance and entire-life-cycle costs, its total expenses are lower than those of a steel grating. The results of this study are expected to serve as preliminary data for the selection of an adequate grating that is suitable for particular places in the design phase of construction projects.

In this paper, we consider the periodic preventive maintenance model for a repairable system following the expiration of extended warranty under replacement-repair warranty. Under the replacement-repair warranty, the failed system is replaced or minimally repaired by the manufacturer at no cost to the user. Also, under extended warranty, the failed system is minimally repaired by the manufacturer at no cost to the user during the original extended warranty period. As a criterion of the optimality, we utilize the expected cost rate per unit time during the life cycle from the user's perspective. And then we determine the optimal preventive maintenance period and the optimal preventive maintenance number by minimizing the expected cost rate per unit time. Finally, the optimal periodic preventive maintenance policy is given for Weibull distribution case.
