Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product 'concrete 40MPa' represents 40MPa ready-mix concrete. Ready-mix concrete consists on mixed cement aggregates admixtures and water in a predefined proportion. 40 MPa concrete is intended for building structures in general not exposed to freeze-thaw including residential commercial and industrial uses. 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.
