    • The Effects of Inflation and Its Volatility on the Choice of Construction Alternatives 

      Lindsey, Lawrence; Schmalensee, Richard; Sacher, Andrew (MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub, 2011-08)
      Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) is the standard method for costing long-lived construction projects. The LCCA process determines the full costs of mutually exclusive construction options, finding the project design with ...

    • Supplementary Information for Comparative Pavement Life Cycle Assessment and Life Cycle Cost Analysis 

      Swei, Omar; Xu, Xin; Noshadravan, Arash; Wildnauer, Margaret; Gregory, Jeremy; e.a. (MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub, 2014-07)
      The MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub (CSHub) is conducting life cycle environmental and cost analyses of pavements under a wide range of contexts. The analyses involve the comparison of new asphalt concrete (AC) and portland ...

    • Methods, Impacts, and Opportunities in the Concrete Pavement Life Cycle 

      Santero, Nicholas; Loijos, Alexander; Akbarian, Mehdi; Ochsendorf, John (MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub, 2011-08)
      Life cycle assessment (LCA) offers a comprehensive approach to evaluate and improve the environmental impacts of pavements. This research explores and advances three key areas relevant to the pavement LCA field: methodology, ...
