The document discusses the three concepts of building life in maintenance work: physical life, functional life, and economic life. Physical life refers to the structural lifespan of a building which can be extended indefinitely through restoration and planned maintenance. Functional life relates to a building no longer meeting its original usage due to social and technological changes, though adaptation is possible. Economic life considers the costs of maintaining a building versus replacing it, with maintenance becoming too burdensome when costs outweigh profits, leading to potential sale, demolition or change of use.
