School buildings are aging, and the costs of maintaining them increase as buildings age. Currently, public sectors and construction and maintenance sectors have not developed comprehensive and consistent standards for budget arrangement and distribution. Based on the notion that precaution is better than cure, the maintenance and management of buildings has been increasingly emphasized. However, the reduced budget of the Ministry of Education has resulted in lower subsidiaries provided to every school. In addition to the reduced funding from the Ministry of Education, schools must consider profit and loss risks, and obtain funding themselves. Therefore, this study explores how schools identify key maintenance items and control maintenance costs within limited budgets. Life cycle cost analysis for buildings has been studied by researchers in recent years; therefore, how to analyze the maintenance cost of university buildings based on the life cycle costs is essential. However, difficulties raised from lack of completed maintenance records. Few studies can provide practical cases and historical data for quantified analyses. For this study, we referenced 47 years of maintenance records of the university buildings of the National Taiwan University from 1965 to 2011. The purposes of this study were to investigate and analyze the life cycle costs, the maintenance cost prediction model, and the budget arrangement and distribution standards for university buildings to provide the construction and maintenance division of the university with more effective methods for managing university buildings. |
