Integration Context

The Life Cycle Analysis Project integrates together the following Individual Systems:

  1.  Steel Bridge
  2. Concrete Road
  3. Highrise Building
  4. Roof Terrace
  • For the integration of all the individual systems, we came up with the idea of a system in which A Highrise Building with a roof terrace is adjacent to the bridge with concrete pavement deck. The following Figure can be referred to have an idea of the Integrated System.

  • Interfaces between individual system:

All the subsystem of the Integrated system is directly connected to each-other physically. The design concept of the interfaces provides us with the information about the flow of the mechanism of the physical connection of the subsystems. The Bridge and the Concrete Road are connected physically as the concrete road acts as a part of bridge deck, Roof terrace Is one of the components of the High-rise building. Bridge and Concrete Road acts as a means of transportation to reach to the building facility hence, the acts as the connection of mass transfer.
