Emission Factor

Concrete normal strength (concrete all types to generic market for concrete normal strength)

Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product 'concrete normal strength' represents a generic concrete which is a weighted average of concrete strengths 20-37 MPa based on their production volumes. Normal strength concrete is generally used for building construction. Megapascal (MPa) is a measure of the compressive strength of concrete (N/mm2). MPa informs of how much pressure can be applied to the concrete product before it cracks or fails. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
