Scenarios for Maintenance and Building Decommissioning in the Building’s Life Cycle
The LCC analysis can be applied to assess effectiveness of construction variants or acquisition of new facilities as well as modernization of the existing ones. The authors of this paper intended to apply the LCCA method at analysing a building in the final stage of the building life cycle (grade phase).

A quantitative model for efficient maintenance of plastered and painted facades
Building owners are faced with increasing maintenance costs incurred to rectify defects on different building elements and systems. With a significant proportion of maintenance costs spent on upkeep of building facades, there is a need for cost-effective

Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

The degradation of building elements progresses with the age of a building as a result of natural ageing processes. The lack of regular maintenance, repair, and renovation works during the operational phase accelerates degradation processes, leading to ...

Buildings Lean Maintenance Implementation Model
Abstract Nowadays, companies in global markets have to achieve high levels of performance and competitiveness to stay “alive”.Within this assumption, the building maintenance cannot be done in a casual and improvised way due to the costs related.

Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.
