Emission factor summary
Emission intensity of production of primary steel section. The GHG emissions standard applied is the ISO 14040 & 14044. Retrieved from Singapore Emission Factors Registry (SEFR) database. The primary data source is Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC). According to the source: Average Carbon Footprint of virgin steel sections (i.e. I-Beams H-Beams C-Channels etc.). The source does not clarify if the kgCO2e value is calculated using either IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) or IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) methodologies.
