Life cycle costs (LCC) of buildings are an important factor during the investment decision-making. They help identify future costs that will accrue over the lifecycle of the building. Besides the investment phase, the most significant costs are those related to operation, such as utilities, cleaning and repairs, replacements, and maintenance of the individual parts of the building. At the same time, these costs are the easiest to control during the pre-investment phase, and are therefore the focus of this paper. The main object of the paper is to show the calculation method and the use of current data necessary to calculate material LCC and their transfer so that they could be used for facility management using the specific example of smooth surface roofing.
