Publisher Description:
This work discusses the impact of the life of buildings on sustainable development methods.The study of the lifespan of the building is used to assess andmanage the environmental impacts associatedwith all the stages of a product's life, from raw material extractionthrough to repair, maintenance and 'end of life' scenarios. While several papers have discussed the
greenhouse gas emissions of buildings, less research has been done on how these are affected by the lifespanof the building. This book serves tohighlight the pertinence of this factor and contributes to providingnew ideas on efficiency within the life
cycle assessment of a structure."
