It brings together a variety of specialized topics relevant to building economics, including cost estimating, life cycle costing, cost indexes, capital budgeting, decision analysis, and real estate feasibility analysis. Develops these concepts within the framework of an integrated approach to design and management decision-making, simplifying where appropriate, but never at the expense of intellectual content. Incorporating a number of sample spreadsheet models, The Economics of Building is a practical resource and guide to the financial assessment of planning, design, and management decisions about buildings.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eBUILDING DESIGN AND MANAGEMENT.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A Changing Context for Building Design and Management.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Decision Process in a Changing Context.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Concepts of Value.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e THEORY.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Time Value of Money.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Economic Evaluation Approaches.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Depreciation and Taxes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Inflation, Deflation, and Differential Escalation.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Cost Data.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Cost Indexes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e METHODS.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Decision Analysis Approach.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Trade-Off Games.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Capital Planning and Budgeting.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Real Estate Feasibility Fundamentals.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Concept Cost Estimating.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Systems Cost Estimating.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Life-Cycle Costing.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Appendix.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Bibliography.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Architecture [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Architecture\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Architecture%20%5BAM%5D%22\"\u003eAM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Interscience","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52298016620824,"sku":"9780471622017","price":86.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471622017.jpg?v=1781730975","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-economics-of-building-a-practical-guide-for-the-design-professional-hardback-9780471622017","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
