Emission intensity of steel - Section. A steel section rolled on a hot rolling mill. Steel Sections include I-beams H-beams wide-flange beams and sheet piling. It can be found on the market for direct use. This product is used in construction multi-story buildings industrial buildings bridge trusses vertical highway supports and riverbank reinforcement. System expansion was used on the steel e.g. for blast furnace slag and other co-products. The influence of system expansion to the GWP for steel products is 3 to 7% lower GWP. Contact Worldsteel for more information. At an EOL recovery rate of 85%. Module D impact of -0.34 kg CO2e per kg ('-' magnitude is a benefit '+' magnitude a burden). This gives a net life cycle inc Mod D of 1.21 kg CO2e per kg. 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.
