maintaining the present price-quality level,

therefore improvements are considered if,

for example, necessary to fulfil demands

from the target group. 25 years Extended exploitation--large improvements level 4

and renovation, in order to secure

lettability for the long term. 25+ years Restructure--usually implies demolition and level 5

new construction, although reuse of the main

building structure is considered if a

quality level that resembles new

construction can be achieved. Source: Staedion (2005)
