Abstract:

The paper considers the differently developed maintenance strategies and lifecycle considerations of federal bridges and industrial facilities. These differences are mostly caused by the interests and objectives of the stakeholders. The maintenance management of bridges can be defined more easily owing to objectives that stand firm. The type of use won’t change in a bridges lifetime. By contrast the requirements of an industrial building can change rapidly and frequently. Other differences are on one hand the improvement of infrastructure and on the other hand the increase of facility output.

The different goals of facility management activities are discussed in the aspect of economy, of maintaining the value and substance respectively, and in terms of bound capital.
