What is Life Cycle Cost?
What is Life Cycle Cost?
• An economic analysis procedure that uses engineering inputs
• Compares competing alternatives considering all significant costs
• Expresses results in equivalent dollars (present worth)

• Discounts all future costs and benefits to the present:
t=n
PW = FC + pwf [MC+IC+FRC+UC] + pwf [S] t=0
• Discounts all future costs and benefits to the present:
t=n
PW = FC + pwf [MC+IC+FRC+UC] + pwf [S] t=0

First (Initial) CostFirst (Initial) Cost
• Initial cost of structure
• Incentive/disincentive payments should not be included since they would reflect user benefits or costs prior to structure going into service
• Initial cost of structure
• Incentive/disincentive payments should not be included since they would reflect user benefits or costs prior to structure going into service
Time Period of AnalysisTime Period of Analysis
• Normally equal for all alternatives
• Should include at least one major rehabilitation– Needed to capture the true economic benefit
of each alternative
• Bridge design today is based on a probabilistic model of 100 years

Maintenance CostsMaintenance Costs
• Annual cost associated with the upkeep of the structure
• Information is difficult to obtain for a given project
• Cost varies on the basis of size of the structure (sqft)
• Best Guess Values– Frequency - Annual– Concrete 0.05 % of Initial Cost– Structural Steel 0.05 % of Initial Cost
• Annual cost associated with the upkeep of the structure
• Information is difficult to obtain for a given project
• Cost varies on the basis of size of the structure (sqft)
• Best Guess Values– Frequency - Annual– Concrete 0.05 % of Initial Cost– Structural Steel 0.05 % of Initial Cost
Inspection CostsInspection Costs
• Requirements set forth in the National Bridge Inspection Standards (23 CFR 650.3)
• Occurs for all alternatives every two years• Cost varies on the basis of size of the
structure (sqft) and by construction material• Best Guess Values
– Frequency - Biannual– Concrete 0.15 % of Initial Cost– Structural Steel 0.20 % of Initial Cost

Future Painting CostsFuture Painting Costs
• Only applies to structural steel structures but excludes weathering steel
• Should occur every 20 years• Cost varies on the basis of size of the
structure (sqft)• Best Guess Values
– Frequency – every 20 years– Concrete 0.0 % of Initial Cost– Structural Steel 7.0 % of Initial Cost

Future Rehabilitation Costs
Future Rehabilitation Costs
• The frequency is not only a function of time but also the growing traffic volume and the structural beam system
• Cost varies on the basis of size of the structure (sqft) and structural beam system
• Best Guess Values– Frequency
• First occurrence – Concrete 40 years• First occurrence – Structural Steel 35 years• Annual traffic growth rate .75 % (shortens rehab
cycles)– Concrete 20.0 % of Initial Cost– Structural Steel 22.0 % of Initial Cost
• The frequency is not only a function of time but also the growing traffic volume and the structural beam system

Salvage Value/CostsSalvage Value/Costs
• Occurs once at end of life of structure
• Difference between– Removal cost– Salvage value
• Best Guess Values– Removal cost 10 % of Initial Cost– Salvage Value – Concrete - 0 % of Initial Cost– Salvage Value – Structural Steel - 2 % of Initial
Cost
• Occurs once at end of life of structure

Interest – The return of an investment that raises the future value of an invested dollar
Inflation – The erosion of a dollar’s value that raises any future expenses
Use of a discount rate allows for the use of constant dollars in the analysis
