This book focuses on spearheading the integration of
maintainability, starting right from the design stage. To enable
such integration, improving the knowledge of maintainability and
setting maintainability benchmarks are two key issues. These
objectives are fulfilled with the development of a comprehensive
defect library, a material manual and a maintainability scoring
system. These tools serve to define acceptable standards in design
and construction practices, thus enhancing long-term
maintainability of facilities.Maintainability of Facilities: For
Building Professionals aims to improve the standard and quality of
design, construction and maintenance practices to produce efficient
facilities that require minimum maintenance. The text covers
technical issues related to maintainability of major components of
a facility, and discusses the implications and selection of
materials for high maintainability.The target readers are
practitioners and students in architecture, engineering, building,
real estate, construction, project management, facilities
management, quantity and building surveying.
With the motto of 'doing it right the first time', this book
focuses on spearheading the integration of designers, constructors
and Facility Management, by providing easy-to-read tables
summarising knowledge learned from past mistakes and
maintainability benchmarks. Based on the predictive/preventive
approach, the tables serve to define acceptable standards in
design, construction and operation practices, to ensure the
standard and quality of design, construction and maintenance
practices for high maintainability at the outset of the
planning/design stage. The text covers technical issues related to
major components of a facility for basements, wet areas, facades,
common areas, roofs and M&E.Related Link(s)

This 5th edition covers the latest practices and processes of
various alternative methods for the construction of tall buildings
from foundation to roof. The text progresses through the stages of
site investigation, excavation and earthmoving, foundation
construction, basement construction, structural systems for the
superstructure, site and material handling, wall and floor
construction, external wall and roof construction. The planning,
safety and environmental considerations, methods, materials,
equipment, and construction sequence of the various proprietary
systems for each of these respectively stages are discussed.The
target readers are practitioners and students in building and
construction professions including architecture, engineering,
project and facilities management, building and construction
management, real estate, quantity and land surveying.
This book focuses on spearheading the integration of
maintainability and green facility management right from the design
stage. The text introduces the concept of green maintainability,
and discusses considerations to maximize the performance by
achieving resource and energy efficiency, while minimizing the
total life cycle cost in embodied energy; environmental impact and
consumption of matter/energy throughout the life cycle of a
facility, by 'doing it right the first time'.In this edition,
existing chapters have been brought up to date, to include
contemporary sustainability concerns, such as: sustainability
design, construction and materials, and maintainability of green
features.Maintainability of Facilities is written for practitioners
and students in architecture, engineering, building, real estate,
construction, project management, facilities management, quantity
and building surveying.

This book introduces the latest construction practices and
processes for tall buildings from foundation to roof. It attempts
to acquaint readers with the methods, materials, equipment and
systems used for the construction of tall buildings.The text
progresses through the stages of site investigation, excavation and
foundations, basement construction, structural systems for the
superstructure, site and material handling, wall and floor
construction, cladding and roof construction. The construction
sequence, merits and limitations of the various proprietary systems
commonly used in these respective stages are discussed. This fourth
edition also includes several new topics not covered in the
previous edition.The target readers are practitioners and students
in the related professions including architecture, engineering,
building, real estate, construction, project and facilities
management, and quantity and land surveying.

This book focuses on spearheading the integration of
maintainability and sustainable facility management right from the
planning & design stage. It introduces the concept of green
maintainability and discusses considerations to maximize the
performance; resource and energy efficiency, while minimizing a
facility's total life cycle cost; embodied energy; carbon emission;
environmental impact and consumption of matter/energy throughout
its life cycle by 'doing it right the first time'.In this edition,
the latest relevant codes of practices, regulations and standards
are included. All chapters have been brought up to date to include
contemporary sustainability concerns, such as sustainability
design, construction and materials, and maintainability of green
features. A new chapter on 'Common Areas' has been added. Every
chapter is summarized with an easy-to-use table to make the book
more practical and user-friendly.Maintainability of Facilities is
