5.3 Indicators for life cycle management
5.3.1 General
In the LCM, appropriate indicators necessary for the assessment of the 1CM scenario shall be set for sustainability factors regarding social, environmental and economic aspects. These indicators shall be calculated with respect to the period of LCM.
5.3.2 SocIal aspect
Social aspects shall be assessed with indicators objectively expressing performance of the structure in the use stage, safety of construction work and safety of users of the structure under conceivable conditions. Even when it is difficult to set and quantify indicators for such qualities as adaptability, comfort, cultural values and social contribution, these shall be considered in a social-scientific manner.
NOTE Social indicators include health and safety, satisfaction, population and community and cultural heritage.
5.3.3 Environmental aspect
Appropriate indicators shall be set for environmental impacts in the execution and use stages of the structure, such as resources consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and impacts on the ambient environment.
NOTE See the ISO 13315 series for details of the environmental management of concrete structures.
5.3.4 Economic aspect
All the direct and indirect costs during the life cycle of the structure, as well as the benefits and values provided by the structure, shall he set as indicators.
NOTE 1 ISO 15686.5 serves as a reference for details of calculating life cycle cost.
NOTE 2 Direct costs are directly attributable to managing of a structure, for example, the costs of materials, labour, equipment, etc., and all efforts or expenses directly involved. Indirect costs are not directly attributable to managing a structure and can include social Inconvenience.
NOTE 3 Maintenance, repair, upgrade and adaptation at the use stage are sometimes costly.
6 Procedures of life cycle management
The basic flow of life cycle management is presented in Figure 1.
A new structure shall be thoroughly managed based on the LCM concept during its life cycle. The basic
LCM scenario shall be formulated at the planning stage of the structure. Design work shall he carried
out to satisfy the plan and the scenario. When the design outputs do not satisfy the initially formulated
1CM scenario, either:
— the LCM scenario shall be modified to be consistent with design outputs; or
— the plan and/or design shall be carried out again.
After the execution, initial assessment shall be carried out to check the state of the structure. When any defect is found from the assessment, remedial measures shall be taken as required. Then, it shall be assessed whether the basic LCM scenario is suitable for the subsequent life cycle of the structure. If modification is deemed necessary, the basic 1CM scenario shall he updated. At the following
assessment, the conditions of the structure shall be re-assessed. Also, the LCM scenario shall be updated as necessary. If the sustainability evaluation shows that no remedial measures are necessary, the structure shall go to the end-of-life stage.
For an existing structure that has not been managed so far but is decided to be managed based on the LCM concept, the 1CM shall start with the first assessment of its performance at the use stage. The basic 1CM scenario shall be formulated by using all available assessment data and design and execution documents. If the assessment results indicate that no remedial measures are necessary, the structure shall go to the end-of-life stage. Otherwise, the same procedure as that for a new structure shall be followed.
When the basic LCM scenario is updated, subsequent management shall be carried out according to the updated scenario.
For the 1CM, the appropriate scenario shall be selected from several basic 1CM scenarios set at each stage of the structure’s life cycle, considering the balance between the sustainability indicators in 5.BS ISO 22040 pdf download.
