    Developing a Framework of a Multi-objective and Multi-criteria Based 53 Approach for Integration of LCA-LCC and Dynamic Analysis in Industrialized Multi-storey Timber Construction Hamid Movaffaghi and Ibrahim Yitmen Abstract To improve organizational decision-making process in construction industry, a framework of a multi-objective and multi-criteria based approach has been developed to integrate results from Life-Cycle Analysis (LCA), Life-Cycle Cost Analysis (LCC) and dynamic analysis for multi-storey industrialized timber structure. Two Building Information Modelling (BIM)-based 3D structural models based on different horizontal stabilization and floor systems will be analyzed to reduce both climate impact, material and production costs and enhance structural dynamic response of the floor system. Moreover, sensitivity of the optimal design will also be analyzed to validate the design. The multi-objective and multi-criteria based LCA-LCC framework analyzing the environmental, economic, and dynamic performances will support decision making for different design in the early phases of a project, where various alternatives can be created and evaluated. The proposed integrated model may become a promising tool for the building designers and decision makers in industrialized timber construction. Keywords LCA Á LCC Á Dynamic response Á Multi-criteria Á Multi-objective Á BIM Á Decision making Á Industrialized timber construction 53.1 Introduction In recent years, the usage of prefabricated structural components of solid wood and engineered wood products (EWPs) has increased due to the recent developments towards an industrialized construction and manufacture within the timber building sector in Sweden [19]. Multi-storey timber frame housing was identified as a field for industrialized process development in Sweden [24].

  • Sustainability in Industrialised Wood Construction – a Theoretical Framework
    Sustainability in Industrialised Wood Construction – A Theoretical Framework John Meiling, Division of Structural Engineering, Luleå University of Technology, 971 87 Luleå, Sweden, [email protected], +46 920 491818 Helena Johnsson, Div. of Structural Engineering, Luleå University of Technology Abstract Timber Volume Element prefabrication (TVE) is an industrialised production system, where wall and floor elements are assembled in factories to volumes before being delivered to the construction site. TVE manufactures buildings to a low production cost without any consider- ation of methods regarding life-cycle concern. An interview study, with potential clients of TVE, shows that there is an uncertainty about fulfilment of functional requirements, resulting in a perception of inferior sustainability of the finished building. During design, decisions are taken concerning choice of material, components and installations that affect the durability as well as operating and maintenance costs during the service life of a building. Procurement Design Construction- Operation and maintenance - Phase out Time Design decisions Consequences Feedback The Construction Products Directive (CPD) of the European Union emphasizes the import- ance of service life planning, suggesting that products permanently installed in a building should be service life declared. The implementation of CPD called for the development of the ISO standard 15686, Buildings and constructed assets – service life planning. Two questions are discussed in this paper; 1) if ISO 15686 can serve as a tool for strategic planning of an economically reasonable service life for wood-based components and 2) if the identification of critical cost and durability decision-making points can be used in the decision-making process when designing wood-based building products.

  • Asset Information Requirements Guide
    Asset Information Requirements Guide: Information required for the operation and maintenance of an asset www.abab.net.au Australasian BIM Advisory Board (ABAB) In May 2017, the Australasian BIM Advisory Board (ABAB) was established by the Australasian Procurement and Construction Council (APCC) and the Australian Construction Industry Forum (ACIF), together with NATSPEC, buildingSMART Australasia and Standards Australia. This partnership of national policy and key standard-setting bodies represents a common-sense approach that captures the synergies existing in, and between, each organisation’s areas of responsibility in the built environment. It also supports a more consistent approach to the adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) across jurisdictional boundaries. The establishment of the ABAB is a first for the Australasian building sector with government, industry and academia partnering to provide leadership to improve productivity and project outcomes through BIM adoption. The ABAB is committed to optimal delivery of outcomes that eliminate waste, maximise end-user benefits and increase the productivity of the Australasian economies. The ABAB has evolved from a previous APCC–ACIF collaboration established in 2015 at a BIM Summit. This summit produced resource documentation to support BIM adoption (refer to www.apcc.gov.au for copies). Members of the ABAB have identified that, without central principal coordination, the fragmented development of protocols, guidelines and approaches form a significant risk that may lead to wasted effort and inefficiencies, including unnecessary costs and reduced competitiveness, across the built environment industry. www.abab.net.au What is Building Information Modelling (BIM)? For the context of the Asset Information Requirements Guide, the European Union (EU) BIM Task Group’s description has been adopted: BIM is a digital form of construction and asset operations.

  • The Role of Standards in Enabling a Data Driven UK Real Estate Market
    The role of standards in enabling a data driven UK real estate market 1 Foreword If data truly is “the new oil” as quoted by Clive Humby, nowhere is that data more prevalent than in the built environment sector. Many organisations have data going back decades but having it accessible and organised in such a way as it provides information from which to be meaningful for informed decision making is unquestionably the key. Particularly in a sector that is very much fragmented horizontally, but even vertically within organisations. When the focus of information becomes an asset, a Dr. Amanda Clack MSc BSc PPRICS building or infrastructure, whose lifespan is decades FRICS FICE FAPM FRSA FIC CCMI CMC or even millennia, then designing, constructing, using, Executive Director and Head of Strategic Advisory, CBRE Ltd maintaining and valuing that asset to the best effect Chair Designate and Trustee of UCEM of the function and the people within it, relies on data. According to Forbes “the amount of data we produce every day is truly mind-boggling’ There are now 2.5 quintillion bytes of data created each day at our current pace, but that pace is only accelerating with the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). Over the last two years alone 90 percent of the data in the world was created” and only 0.8% of it was analysed. If the data we produce in the built environment is accelerating at a similar pace, combined with the increasing need for collaboration and data sharing across teams and throughout the life of the building through the likes of Building Information Management (BIM), Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), IoT, the Code for Sustainable Buildings and the like, we need to get our data in order, and fast.
