In this book, the editors and expert contributors review ways of assessing the environmental impact of construction and building materials. Chapters in part one discuss the application of life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology to building materials as well as eco-labeling. Part two includes case studies showing the application of LCA methodology to different types of building material, from cement and concrete to wood and adhesives used in building. The concluding section offers case studies applying LCA methodology to particular structures and components.
