4. 17th April, 2005Lifecon Project: Lifetime Workshop, Lyon 4 Basic Characteristics of LIFECON LMS 1. Generic can be applied for any kind of concrete infrastructures new program modules can be easily added different degradation models can be used 2. Integrated integrated two level system harmonising the object level work programme with the network level optimum different matters can be taken into account in the decision making prosess 3. Probabilistic mathematical solutions are based on probabilistic methods with probabilistic degradation and repair models

5. 17th April, 2005Lifecon Project: Lifetime Workshop, Lyon 5 General Characteristics of LIFECON Framework LIFECON LMS consists of three separate systems: 1. Object Level System yearly MR&R projects based on inspection and condition assessment 2. Network Level System long and short term operative planning and decision making 3. Network and Object Level System integrated two level system harmonising the object level work programme with the network level optimum

7. 17th April, 2005Lifecon Project: Lifetime Workshop, Lyon 7 LIFECON Levels of Decision The structures are divided into three levels of structural hierachy: 1. Component/module level structural components e.g. beams, columns, combined modules 2. Object level complete structures or buildings 3. Network level networks of objects e.g. stocks of bridges or buildings
