Its declared mission is "to be the premier international organization for the advancement of the state-of-the-art in the field of life-cycle civil engineering".
The activities of the IALCCE cover all aspects of life-cycle assessment, design, maintenance, rehabilitation and monitoring of civil engineering systems.
The inaugural IALCCE Symposium was held in Varenna, Lake Como, Italy, in June 2008, under the auspices of Politecnico di Milano.
The outcomes of the IALCCE International Symposia are collected in a Book Series "Life-Cycle of Civil Engineering Systems", published by CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group.
The proceedings published in this Series will serve as a valuable reference to all concerned with life-cycle performance of civil engineering systems.
