Responsible Investigator of the Research Project entitled "Buildings Envelope SLP-based Maintenance: reducing the risks and costs for owners". First author of an International Book, entitled "Methodologies for service life prediction of buildings: with a focus on façade claddings", by Springer International Publishing. Author of 46 scientific publications in indexed journals. researcher, working in statistical modelling of service life prediction of building elements throughout the last 12 years. She is author of 9 papers in international journals in this research field.Īna Silva is a Ph.D. More specifically, on the infrastructure life cycle, operation of infrastructure management systems, service life prediction models, and maintenance of civil infrastructures. researcher, working over the last 8 years on the field of life cycle analysis and management of existing structures. The book will be of use to a variety of professionals in the construction sector.Ĭláudia Ferreira is a Ph.D. The model provides key information, such as: i) the impact of different maintenance strategies on the service life and durability of the building components ii) the impact of maintenance on their performance over time iii) the life cycle costs and iv) the impact of maintenance on the buildings' use. The maintenance model is based on a Petri net formalism and includes degradation, inspection, maintenance, and renewal processes. However, as first barrier to the external environment, these elements are critical to buildings' overall performance and are expected to meet aesthetic, comfort, safety, and durability requirements. As non-structural elements, the maintenance of buildings envelope can be disregarded stakeholders. The model is stochastic and condition-based that analyses the impact of different maintenance strategies on the durability and performance of different buildings envelope elements (facades, windows, and roofs). This book introduces a maintenance model that will assist decision-makers in their choice of building maintenance policies. ![]()
