Development and Use of the Life Cycle Cost in Design Computer Program (LCCID).

Abstract

This report documents the development of and provides basic user instructions for a program to perform life cycle cost analysis of new military facilities. The program is easy for personnel who have not had much experience with computers to use. It allows the user to select parameters that best describe his/her design project from a menu of choices. Responses to computer queries can often be answered in one word. The program output can either be displayed on the terminal or printed out as hard copy. The output contains much of the information needed for an economic review of a design. The program is written in FORTRAN 77 and will be made available on the Corps of Engineers' timesharing vendor, on District/Division Harris computers, and on Intel 8086 compatible microcomputers. The source code will be made available for conversions to other hardware, as well.
