Original Abstract

Within the scope of the research we are engaged in the effect of new materials mainly made from secondary raw materials on the price of the building structure, the building structure itself, its lifetime and economic efficiency. We are focused on price impact and the whole efficiency of utilization of new materials developed within the scope of related research. The production of these materials may not be always economically profitable, but their utilization can have a great ecological importance. The main objective of this paper is to present the way in which to simulate the effect of building material substitution on the prices of building constructions and of the building life cycle efficiency on the model situation through the utilization of mathematical methods.
