Studies on the total energy use during the life cycle of reinforced concrete buildings are desirable, considering the urgent necessity to save energy. Life cycle of buildings includes different phases which are the manufacture of the building materials, transportation, construction of the building, occupancy, renovation, demolition and removal of the materials from debris. However, there have been few studies are on the total energy use during the life cycle of buildings. Researches are mainly focused oil the energy use for buildings during their period of use. In the present study, the total energy use of ordinary reinforced concrete buildings in Izmir during their life cycle is investigated and their energy consumptions are calculated for all temporal phases separately.
