Eco-Efficient Construction and Building Materials

Eco-Efficient Construction and Building Materials

By Fernando Pacheco-Torgal, Luisa F. Cabeza, João Labrincha & Aldo Giuntini de Magalhaes Engineering 14/02/2014

Eco-efficient Construction and Building Materials reviews ways of assessing the environmental impact of construction and building materials. Part one discusses the application of life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology to building materials as well as eco-labeling. Part two includes case studies showing the application of LCA methodology to different types of building material, from cement and concrete to wood and adhesives used in building. Part three includes case studies applying LCA methodology to particular structures and components.Reviews ways of assessing the environmental impact of construction and building materialsProvides a thorough overview, including strengths and shortcomings, of the life cycle assessment (LCA) and eco-labeling of eco-efficient construction and building materialsIncludes case studies showing the application of LCA methodology to different types of building material, from cement and concrete to wood and adhesives used in building
