Eco-Indicator 99 Reports [
Netherlands
] 1999
Designers are not environmental specialists and they never will be. Still, they make decisions that influence the environment during the product's life cycle. As designers cannot consult an environmental expert in every case, they need a reliable tool to measure the environmental consequences of their design decisions. The Eco-indicator 99 is such a tool.

Whole Building Design Guide: Life-Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) [
USA
]
Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) is a method for assessing the total cost of facility ownership. It takes into account all costs of acquiring, owning and disposing of a building or building system. LCCA is especially useful when project alternatives that fulfill the same performance requirements but differ with respect to initial costs and operating costs have to be compared in order to select the one that maximizes net savings.
