BridgeLCC

BridgeLCC is user-friendly life-cycle costing software developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to help bridge engineers assess the cost effectiveness of new, alternative construction materials.

The software uses a life-cycle costing methodology based on both ASTM standard E 917 and a cost classification developed at NIST.
BridgeLCC is specifically tailored for comparing new and conventional bridge materials --- for example, high-performance concrete versus conventional concrete --- but works equally well when analyzing alternative conventional materials. Also, it can be used to analyze pavements, piers, and other civil infrastructure.
