Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTEEditorial changes were made throughout in April 2011.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers procedures for
3、least cost (life cycle)analysis (LCA) of materials, systems, or structures proposedfor use in the construction of concrete culvert, storm sewer, andsanitary sewer systems.NOTE 1As intended in this practice, examples of analyses include, butare not limited to the following: (1) materials-pipe linings
4、 and coatings,concrete wall thicknesses, cements, additives, etc.; (2) systems-circularpipe, box sections, multiple lines, force mains, etc.; and (3) structures-wetand dry wells, pump and lift stations, etc.1.2 The LCA method includes costs associated with plan-ning, engineering, construction (bid p
5、rice), maintenance, reha-bilitation, replacement, and cost deductions for any residualvalue at the end of the proposed project design life.1.3 For each material, system, or structure, the LCA methoddetermines in present value constant dollars, the total of allinitial and future costs over the projec
6、t design life, and deductsany residual value.1.4 Major factors in the LCA method include project designlife, service life, and relevant interest and inflation rates.2.

Significance and Use3.1 The significance of the LCA m
22、ethod is that it is acomprehensive technique for taking into account all relevantmonetary values over the project design life and provides ameasure of the total cost of the material, system, or structure.3.2 The LCA method can be effectively applied in both thepreconstruction and bid stages of proje
23、cts.After bids are taken,real costs can be used instead of estimates.4. Procedures4.1 The procedures for determining the LCA of a material,system, or structure can be summarized in five basic steps.4.1.1 Identify Objective, Alternatives, and Constraints.4.1.2 Establish Basic Criteria.4.1.3 Compile D
24、ata.4.1.4 Compute LCA for Each Material, System, or Struc-ture.4.1.5 Evaluate Results.4.2 Objectives, Alternatives, and ConstraintsEstablish thespecific objectives of the project and identify alternative waysof accomplishing the objectives. For example, alternatives fora sanitary sewer system may in
25、clude a gravity flow systemversus a gravity flow system with life stations versus a singleforce main. Identify constraints, such as maximum culvert heador tail water, maximum and minimum slopes and depths ofburial, installation methods, etc.4.3 CriteriaEstablish basic criteria that should be fol-low
26、ed in applying the LCA method, including project designlife; the material, system, or structure service life; direct andindirect costs and timing of maintenance, rehabilitation andreplacement; real or nominal discount rate; and the compre-hensiveness of the LCA evaluation.4.4 Compile DataCompile bas
27、ic data required to computethe LCA of potential alternatives, including costs of planning,design, engineering and construction; maintenance costs; reha-bilitation costs; replacement costs; residual values; and thetime periods for all future costs.4.5 Compute LCAThe LCA of a material, system, orstruc
28、ture can be formulated in simple terms with all costs andvalues in present value constant dollars:LCA 5 C 2 S 1 (M 1 N 1 R! (1)where:C = original cost,S = residual value,M = maintenance cost,N = rehabilitation cost, andR = direct and indirect replacement cost.4.5.1 Original CostOriginal cost is defi
29、ned in Section 2and is normally developed from the engineers estimate or isthe actual bid price. A material, system, or structure may havea service life longer than the project design life and, conse-quently, would have a residual future current dollar value,which must be discounted back to a presen
30、t constant dollarvalue, and subtracted from the original cost. Since mainte-nance, rehabilitation, and replacement costs may be incurredseveral times during the life of the project, the future currentdollar value of each occurrence must be discounted back to apresent constant dollar value and the va
31、lues summed.4.5.2 Future CostsFuture costs are normally estimated inconstant dollar values, which are then converted to futurecurrent dollar values by an inflation factor and then discountedback to present constant dollar values by an interest factor:FV 5 A 1 1 I!n(2)where:FV = future current dollar
32、 value,A = constant dollar value,I = inflation rate, andn = number of years in the future at which costs areincurred.PV 5FV1 1 i!n(3)where:PV = present constant dollar value, andi = interest or nominal discount rate.Combining Eq 2 and Eq 3:PV 5 AS1 1 I1 1 iDn(4)Eq 4 is usable, but requires assumptio
33、ns of both interest andinflation rates. Although interest and inflation rates can varywidely, historical records indicate that the differential betweeninterest and inflation rates has been relatively stable over thelong term. Therefore, by defining an inflation/interest factor, F,as:F 5S1 1 I1 1 iD(
34、5)where:F = inflation/interest factor.C1131 1012Restating Eq 4:PV 5 A F!n(6)The inflation/interest factor is virtually constant for specificdifferentials between interest and inflation rates. Therefore,utilizing the inflation/interest factor in present value calcula-tions eliminates the uncertaintie
35、s and distortions due to selec-tion of possibly incompatible individual interest and inflationrates (2).NOTE 2Table X1.1 presents the inflation/interest factor for a range ofinflation rates from 4 through 18 % and differentials between interest andinflation rates of 1 through 5 %. For different sour
36、ces of financing, thedifferential between interest and inflation rates significant in constructionover a 30-year period is presented in Table X1.2.4.5.3 Residual ValueIf a material, system, or structure hasa service life greater than the project design life, it would havea residual future current do
37、llar value, which should be dis-counted back to a present constant dollar value and subtractedfrom the original cost. Using a straight-line depreciation, thepresent value of the residual value is:S 5 CF!np SnsnD(7)where:S = residual value,C = present constant dollar cost,ns= number of years the mate
38、rial, system, or structureservice life exceeds the project design life,n = service life, andnp= project design life.With a lack of data to determine the residual value, a salvagevalue or cash value may be substituted or the term neglected.If accounting practices dictate, another depreciation method,
39、other than straight-line, may be used.4.5.4 Maintenance CostsThe present value of mainte-nance costs is calculated by determining the future value ofeach cost occurrence, discounting each to a present value, andsumming all the values. Maintenance costs may be on anannual basis or estimated as a tota
40、l for a periodic cycle orcovering a certain number of years, which reduces the numberof computations. The total present value of all maintenancecosts is:M 5 CM( Fn 1 F2n. 1 Fmn! (8)where:M = total present value of all maintenance costs,CM= constant dollar cost of a maintenance cycle,n = number of ye
41、ars in maintenance cycle, andm = number of maintenance cycles in project design life.If a maintenance cycle ends in a year in which rehabilitationor replacement work is scheduled, then the total present valueof maintenance costs should be refined by omitting the costs ofthat maintenance cycle. Where
42、 future maintenance costs are onan annual basis, the total present value of all maintenance costscan be determined by:M 5 CMF1F!mn1/F 1G (9)4.5.5 Rehabilitation CostsIf a material, system, or struc-ture has durability or structural problems before the end of theproject design life, it may be possibl
43、e to extend its service lifeby rehabilitation repairs. If the extended service life does notequal or exceed the project design life, the material, system, orstructure would probably require replacement at the end of theextended service life. A material, system, or structure mayrequire rehabilitation
44、 or replacement several times during theproject design life. The present value of rehabilitation costs iscalculated by determining the future value of each costoccurrence, discounting each to a present value and summingall values:N 5 (CNFn(10)where:N = present value of rehabilitation costs,CN= const
45、ant dollar cost estimated for a rehabilitationproject,n = number of years after the project is completed thatrehabilitation costs will be incurred.4.5.6 Replacement Costs:4.5.6.1 The present value of replacement costs is zero for amaterial, system, or structure with a service life equal to orgreater
46、 than the project design life.4.5.6.2 The present value of replacement costs for a mate-rial, system, or structure with a service life less than the projectdesign life is calculated by determining the future value of eachreplacement, discounting each to a present value, and summingall values:R 5 (CR
47、Fn(11)where:R = present value of replacement costs,CR= constant dollar cost of direct and indirect replace-ment, andn = number of years after the project is completed thatreplacement costs are estimated to occur.C1131 10134.5.6.3 The future value of indirect replacement costs for amaterial, system,
48、or structure with a service life less than theproject design life is calculated by determining user delaysduring construction (3):CRi5 AADT 3 t 3 d cp3 vp3 vof1 cf3 vf! (12)where:AADT = Annual Average Daily Traffic of the roadwaywhich the culvert is being installed,t = the average increase in delay
49、to each vehicle perday, in hours,d = the number of days the project will take,cp= the average rate of person-delay, in dollars perhour (4),vp= the percentage of passenger vehicle traffic,vof= the vehicle occupancy factor,cf= the average rate of freight-delay, in dollars perhour (5), andvf= the percentage of truck traffic.5.
