Kambekar2 1(PG Student, Const.Mgmnt, CED, SPCE Andheri (West), Mumbai 400058, India, sumitspadwal@gmail.com) 2(Faculty, CED, SPCE Andheri (West), Mumbai 400058, India, a_kambekar@spce.ac.in) Abstract: Initial cost is the prime criteria for making choices between different systems. But, it may be possible that a low initial cost may turn out to be more costly from the life cycle cost point of view. Life cycle cost analysis gives better overview of the total cost occurred during whole life of that particular system. Life cycle costs of typical system (Building Construction) were analyzed and compared in a case-study of transit camp building. Brick masonry with reinforced cement concrete construction is considered as conventional system in building construction. Autoclaved aerated cement block masonry and structural profile steel decking are considered the …show more content…
