Life cycle cost analyses is one of the useful tool for evaluating the lifespan performance of buildings. The sum of initial and future costs associated with the construction and operation of a building over a period of life time is determined by life cycle cost analysis. In this study, a moment-resisting steel building is designed using various base shear values and the life cycle cost of each design is determined for different earthquake intensities. Static pushover analysis is used to calculate yield base shear value of each design and initial costs, the cost of the expected damages caused by earthquakes that are expected to occur during the design life of the buildings are estimated. The optimum economic design of the steel building is determined by using yield base shear and total cost values.
