INTRODUCTION
The only book on the market to guide engineers and building managers
through preparing a building service life plan for a green building
examines materials life cycle, reuse, and end-of-life disposal.
Preparing a Building Service Life Plan for Green Buildings uniquely adapts the traditional practice
of building service life planning (BSLP) to address the specific needs of green buildings, filling a
void in the market for this information.
The plan presented in the book describes not only repair and maintenance for promoting the
durability of major buildings elements, but also expectations for their removal, reuse, dismantling,
and disposal at the end-of-life. Life cycle performance and costs are addressed. This book provides
much-needed guidance for structural and environmental engineers, architects and contractors,
building managers, and maintenance personnel.
•
Provides a template for creating a green building BSLP
•

Describes product selection, maintenance, repair, and end-of-life removal and reuse
Bonus downloadable software and content included
DESCRIPTION
Expert guidance on developing a green building service life plan
Filled with step-by-step instructions, Preparing a Building Service Life Plan for Green Buildings
explains how to create a framework for managing the performance requirements and life-cycle
impacts--including end-of-life--of major building elements for the duration of a green building’s
intended lifespan.
The book discusses operation and maintenance; inspections and assessments; repairs, upgrades,
and replacements; documentation; and removal, reuse, recycling, dismantling, and end-of-life
disposal of building components. A customizable template for creating a comprehensive green
BSLP is included in this practical resource.
