STUDY ON ENVIRONMENTAL LOAD OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDING USING PHYSICAL SERVICE LIFE AS VARIABLES

Abstract

This paper reports on the environmental load for CO₂ emission reduction of RC buildings and RC members made of blended cement using the physical service life as variables. Case studies and parametric studies of the environmental loads were also conducted using physical service life as variables. As a result, it was shown that the impact on the environmental load differs depending on the cement type, finishing material, and maintenance cycle.
