C-01 End-of-waste status
Aspect C-01 End-of-waste status Description Different countries define a waste’s end-of-waste status at different points in the waste treatment or recycling process. How should the end-of-waste state be defined? related study objective ☒ stand-alone LCA ☒ comparative assertion related study phase ☒ ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ goal and scope definition inventory analysis (LCI) impact assessment…

C-01 Demolition/deconstruction – screening and simplified LCA
Aspect C-01 Demolition/deconstruction – screening and simplified LCA Description The deconstruction and demolition stage involves quantification of the impact related to the end of life of the constructed system. For example, if it is a reinforced concrete building, deconstruction activity will consist mainly in separating the reinforcing steel from the concrete. During this operation, energy…

C-05 Transport of wastes to landfill, incineration and recycling facilities – screening and simplified LCA
Aspect C-05 Transport of wastes to landfill, incineration and recycling facilities – screening and simplified LCA Description The transportation distances are likely to be different, depending on the EoL scenarios. For example, whereas a landfill facility is likely to be found in every city, a recycling plant may be far away as, for example, only…

B- 09. “Repair with simplified LCA”
Aspect B- 09. “Repair with simplified LCA” Description Repair module covers all corrective, responsive or reactive treatment of a construction product or construction works to return it to a condition in which it can perform its required functional and technical performance. It covers only the partial replacements of components and building parts (in case of…
