Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is concrete production, 40MPa, for building construction, with cement, CEM III/A. The Reference Product is concrete, 40MPa. 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 Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity.
