BS 8544:2013 pdf download.Guide for life cycle costing of maintenance during the in use phases of buildings.
3.1.20 function maintenance index
ratio of function unit cost estimate of annualized maintenance (i.e. maintain works including planned, reactive and proactive maintenance) to the CRV, expressed over an agreed period of analysis
NOTE See also 3.1.10 for CRy.
3.1.21 function type
primary use of a facility or part of a facility
3.1.22 functional unit
unit of measurement used to represent the primary use of a facility or part of a facility including all associated circulation space, such as bed space, house and retail area
NOTE See NRM 1, Appendix 8 (11 for a list of functional units.

3.1.23 gross internal floor area
area of a building measured to the internal face of the perimeter walls at each floor level
NOTE For more information regarding the rules of measurement of gross internal floor area, see the RICS Code of Measuring Practice (6th edition) (61.
3.1.24 inflation
sustained increase in the general price level of labour, plant and equipment, and materials
3.1.25 inspection logbook
collection of inspection records produced during inspection activities
[SOURCE: BS EN 15331:2011, 3.131
3.1.26 in use
phase of the life cycle of the asset after handover and prior to the end of life phase NOTE The start of the end of life phase is signalled by decommissioning.
3.1.27 life cycle
consecutive and interlinked stages of the object under consideration (SOURCE: BS ISO 15686-5:2008, 3.3.4, modified — Notes 1 and 2 have been deleted]
3.1.28 life cycle cost
cost of an asset or its parts throughout its life cycle, while fulfilling the performance requirements
(SOURCE: ISO 15686-5:2008, 3.1.71
3.1.29 life cycle costing
methodology for the systematic economic evaluation of life cycle costs over a period of analysis, as defined in the agreed scope
NOTE LCC can address a period of analysis that covers the entire life cycle or (a) selected stage(s) or periods of interest thereof.

3.1.30 life cycle costing in construction
methodology for the sy5tematlc economic evaluation of life cycle costs over a period of analysis taking place during the construction phase
3.1.33 maintain cost
cost of annualized maintenance (including planned, reactive and proactive maintenance and minor repairs up to an agreed limit of liability)
NOTE The maintain costs include the maintenance contractors on costs and risks provision, fees and taxation and inflation allowances (required to be included for certain LCC outcomes). An example of this would be the replacement of door or window ironmongery.
3.1.34 maintenance cost
total cost of necessary labour, material and other related costs incurred to retain a building or its parts in a state in which it can perform its required functions NOTE For this British Standard where maintenance cost is referred to it includes both maintain costs and renewal costs.
3.1.35 maintenance of facilities
combination of all technical, administrative and managerial actions during the life cycle of a building (or a part of it), intended to maintain it at. or restore it to, a state in which it can perform the required function
3.1.36 maintenance manual
technical instructions intended to preserve an item in, or restore it to, a state in which it can perform a required function
[SOURCE: BS EN 13460:2009, 5.31
3.1.37 maintenance plan
structured and documented set of tasks that include the activities, procedures, resources and the time scale required to carry out maintenance
[SOURCE: BS EN 13306: 2010, 2.51
3.1.38 major replacement
work that involves the asset renewal or replacement of obsolete or worn out components or elements of a building and services at the end of their economic life NOTE This classification of work is usually planned but might be instigated as a result of obsolescence (e.g. technology). An example of this would be cladding renewal.
3.1.39 net present cost
sum of discounted future cost cash flows
3.1.40 net present value
sum of the discounted future cash flows, including both cost and income
3.1.41 occupancy cost
operation cost incurred by the occupant during the in use period
3.1.42 period of analysis
period of time over which life cycle costs or whole life costs are analysed
