Emission factor summary

Emission intensity of concrete - average uk mix. It is strongly recommended to avoid selecting a 'general' value for concrete. Selecting data for a specific cement content in the concrete type will give much greater accuracy. Data from EPD-RMC-20180095-CBG1-EN for average UK concrete produced by the British Ready-Mixed Concrete Association (BRMCA) part of the Mineral Products Association (MPA). Concrete mixture is 200kg CEM I 95 kg ggbs 15 kg fly ash 1915kg aggregate 139 kg water and 1.55 kg admixture. The source does not clarify if the kgCO2e value is calculated using the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) or IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) or IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) methodologies.
