Material intensity and embodied CO2 benchamark for reinforced concrete strucutres in Brazil
Abstract: Cement and steel production significantly contribute to global CO2 emissions, with reinforced concrete structures accounting for a substantial portion. Therefore, optimizing the structural design helps reduce material and carbon intensity. However, industry-based benchmarks for material and carbon intensity of structures are scarce and lack transparency. This study fills this Leia mais…
