Towards value increase in urban regeneration: A study of how value engineering could be used in order to increase the value of urban regeneration projects

By the means of urban regeneration, municipalities aim to increase the current value of an urban area. This so called ‘value improvement’ is obtained when extra performances achieved by urban regeneration outrun the life cycle costs for it. This implies that if both parameters are quantified the decision making process becomes more transparent....

Van kantoorgebouw naar woonzorgvoorziening: Een LCC-analyse model tbv financiële haalbaarheid

There is some difficulty in determining the financial feasibility of the transformation of offices to residential care facilities. This research aims to fill that gap by analyzing the operating costs of residential care facilities and developing a LCC-calculation model with which to determine the financial feasibility of said transformations.
