Durability of materials

  • SAKSHI SINGHAL

    Hello sir!
    I am doing research work on Life Cycle analysis of buildings. For this, I need to look into life span of various materials( for life cycle costing). I found a list on the link below:

    Can you please tell me the source of data or what are the basics you have chosen for setting the standards for life expectancy of various materials. It would be great help to me

    Hi Sakshi, I believe that particular PDF is from BCIS. Mind you, their website has been updated since we first sourced that PDF from there however we had saved a copy of that PDF and uploaded it to our server. So now I’m not sure where on their website you’d be able to find that data.
    Hope that helps!
