Seminar

The objective of this workshop is to introduce ASTM and ISO Building Economics Standards and impart the skills necessary to apply the Life Cycle Costing (LCC) methodology to the evaluation and analysis of investments in buildings, specifically in the field of energy efficiency and Green Buildings.

The seminar is divided into three workshop sessions to gain experience in using the comprehensive financial tables provided and applying the LCC technique to building systems and energy related problems (calculations are simple – participants are required to bring only standard calculators). 

Seminar Outline

  • ASTM and ISO Building Economics Standards
  • Selection of Financial Criteria
  • LCC Financial Tables - Present Value Factors (SPV, UPV, SPV*, UPV*) 
  • Workshop A: Calculating Present Values 
  • Data requirements for calculating Life Cycle Costs
  • Workshop B: Calculating Life Cycle Costs  
  • Supplementary evaluation measures  (NS, SIR, AIRR, DPB)   
  • Workshop C:  Supplementary Evaluation Measures
  • Sources of LCC data and software
  • Integrating LCC in the design process

The following documentation is included in the seminar fee:

  • A manual containing all slides, workshop problems and related appendices
  • Comprehensive Life Cycle Costing Financial Tables
  • The NIST/DOE Life Cycle Costing Manual for the Federal Energy Management Program

Instructor: Robert P. Charette, P.E., CVS, PQS

Robert P. Charette, P.E., CVS, PQS is an associate adjunct professor at Concordia University in Montreal.  He is a member of ISO TC 59/WG4 on Maintenance and Life Cycle Costing and ASTM S/C E06.81 on Building Economics; he was co-chairman of the ASTM Task Group that developed the UNIFORMAT II Standard Classification of Building Elements, widely used for building design estimates and schematic phase specifications.

   A past member of ASHRAE TC 1.8 on Owning and Operating Costs, he is also accredited as a Certified Value Specialist (CVS) by the Society of American Value Engineers, and as a Professional Quantity Surveyor (PQS) by the Canadian Institute of Quantity Surveyors. Mr. Charette has lectured and presented seminars on Life Cycle Costing, Energy Management, Value Engineering, Elemental Estimating, and UNIFORMAT II for Design Management to various organizations and universities in the U.S., Canada, and the UK.
