About this factor
Publisher's description
The average EPD (type: Cradle to gate with modules C1–C4 and module D) is about custom made precast concrete based on the concrete recipe type 5, manufactured in Xanten, Germany. The calculation is based on 1 m³ of concrete with a share of 6 m% reinforcing and prestressed steel. Kiwa-Ecobility Experts shall not be liable with respect to manufacturer information, life cycle assessment data and evidences.
Included processes
The products are reinforced and prestressed precast concrete elements in various formats, sizes and applications. The elements are used as columns, walls and beams. The concrete type 5 has compressive strength class of C 55/67. The manufacturing contains the following processes: Delivery of raw materials; Preparation of the moulds (formwork, cutting and laying of the probation steel elements, placeholders); Concrete mixing and filling into the mould, curing; Removal of the formwork, finishing, storage.
Applicability
