This is based on the fact that a growing percentage of civil infrastructure as well as buildings is threatened by obsolescence and that due to simple monetary reasons this can no longer be countered by simply re-building everything anew. Hence maintenance interventions are required which allow partial or complete structural rehabilitation. However, maintenance interventions have to be economically reasonable, that is, maintenance expenditures have to be outweighed by expected future benefits. Is this not the case, then indeed the structure is obsolete - at least in its current functional, economic, technical, or social configuration - and innovative alternatives have to be evaluated. An optimization formulation for planning maintenance interventions based on cost-benefit criteria is proposed herein. The underlying formulation is as follows: (a) between maintenance interventions structural deterioration is described as a random process; (b) maintenance interventions can take place anytime throughout lifetime and comprise the rehabilitation of all deterioration states above a certain minimum level; and (c) maintenance interventions are optimized by taking into account all expected life-cycle costs (construction, failure, inspection and state-dependent repair costs) as well as state- or time-dependent benefit rates. The optimization is performed by an evolutionary algorithm. The proposed approach also allows to determine optimal lifetimes and acceptable failure rates. Numerical examples demonstrate the importance of defining benefit rates explicitly. It is shown, that the optimal solution to maintenance interventions requires to take action before reaching the acceptable failure rate or the zero expected net benefit rate level. Deferring decisions with respect to maintenance not only results, in general, in higher losses, but also results in overly hazardous structures.}, subject = {Kosten-Nutzen-Analyse}, language = {en} } @article{DaubeMetzner, author = {Daube, Dirk and Metzner, Steffen}, title = {Priorisierung von energetischen Maßnahmen in heterogenen Immobilienportfolios - Am Beispiel eines Bestandes der {\"o}ffentlichen Hand}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Immobilien{\"o}konomie}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Immobilien{\"o}konomie}, doi = {10.1365/s41056-016-0011-4}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170418-31332}, pages = {53 -- 79}, abstract = {In vielen {\"o}ffentlichen Geb{\"a}uden besteht ein hohes wirtschaftliches Einsparpotenzial bei den relevanten Energietr{\"a}gern W{\"a}rme und Strom.
