Use advice for data set This document is a project-specific EPD and is intended for use exclusively in connection with the respective project. This document refers to the production of C16/20 XC1 XC2 F3 8 M ECOPact test concrete, mix code DI2134-BHZK produced in the plant of Düsseldorf-Rath of Holcim (Deutschland) GmbH for use as ready-mix concrete of normal building construction and civil engineering.
Type of EPD: cradle to gate with options, modules C1–C4, and module D (A1–A3 + C + D and additional modules A4, A5 and B1)
The selected system boundaries include the production of the concrete including the extraction of raw materials through to the installation, use and end of life of the finished product.
Module A1: Extraction and processing of the raw materials used in concrete production
Module A2: Transport of the raw materials to the plant
Module A3: Concrete production in the plant and waste treatment
Module A4: Transport to the construction site
Module A5: Includes all processes associated with placing the concrete (e.g. pumping or installation by crane) as well as the production, transport and treatment of unused concrete (e.g. return concrete)
Module B1: Carbonation during the use phase
Module B2-B7: For concrete components, maintenance, repair refurbishment or replacement measures are not usually required during the reference service life. Therefore, no environmental burden is considered in these modules
Module C1: Dismantling / demolition of concrete buildings / components
Module C2: Transport of demolished concrete for processing
Module C3: Concrete waste processing
Module D: Benefits and loads for the use of concrete demolition waste as replacement for primary materials |
