Introduction to Built Asset Management Provides a multidisciplinary
introduction to building maintenance management and execution,
covering a wide range of current technical and management issues
The maintenance and upgrading of existing buildings is no longer
viewed as separate from the operational phase of the completed
building. Maintenance and management are now regarded as
fundamental parts of a building's life cycle, forming a significant
percentage of the construction industry's total output. As higher
education programmes in the UK and elsewhere continue to place
greater emphasis on the longer-term view of construction projects,
students and instructors require a thorough and up-to-date textbook
that emphasises the comprehensive nature of building maintenance.
Introduction to Built Asset Management is a systematic introduction
to both the technology and management issues central to building
maintenance and refurbishment. Covering the entire life cycle of
built assets, the textbook reviews the role of framework
agreements, describes key performance indicators, discusses recent
advancements in the procurement of maintenance activities and more.
Detailed yet accessible chapters include illustrative examples,
seminar questions and self-assessment tasks that enable students to
measure their progress as they work through the material. Designed
to meet the needs of today's learners, this much-needed textbook:
Addresses a variety of both environmental and commercial concerns
Evaluates important concepts of sustainability, sustainable
maintenance and carbon resilience Discusses the growing retrofit
market in the wider context of asset management and maintenance
Describes information management tools such as building information
modelling (BIM) and geographic information systems (GIS)
Introduction to Built Asset Management is ideally suited for
courses in construction, construction management, building
surveying and facilities management with modules in built asset
management and maintenance.
