Sri Lanka also no exception to this problem due to the... Read More about Building organisational capacities for effective e-waste management: a conceptual framework.

Estimating the running costs of commercial buildings: artificial neural network modeling (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Hemba Geekiyanage, M., & Ramachandra, T. (2019, May). Estimating the running costs of commercial buildings: artificial neural network modeling. Presented at 10th International Structural Engineering and Construction Conference, ISEC 2019, Chicago, USA

Running costs of a building is a substantial share of its total life-cycle cost (LCC) and it ranges between 70-80% in commercial buildings. Despite its significant contribution to LCC, investors and construction industry practitioners tend to mostly...
