Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.8. The product "concrete, 45MPa" represents South African 45MPa ready-mix and high-strength concrete. Density: 2,260 kg/m³. The composition of concrete (for 1 m³) contains: Portland fly ash cement 464 kg, Water 147 kg, Gravel 1050kg, Sand 746 kg, Admixtures (air-entrainers and superplastisizers) 4.63kg. This product is used for suspended structural beams and slabs, and pre-cast items such as flagstones and heavy-duty floors such as workshop floors. 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.
