Abstract:In this paper, we gave a clear concept of environmental performance (EP), and proposed an estimating method of environmental performance indicator (EPI) for concrete, based on an integrated life cycle impact assessment. The environmental burden (EB) factors of concrete were also discussed. In order to well evaluate the environmental benefits of waste utilization, land use change and nature environmental resource loss caused in the production stage of concrete were also taken as the EB factors and their estimat… Show more
