Sustainable reinforcing steel scheme measures environmental impact

摘要

The UK Government's Increased focus on sustainable development has made clear Its commitment to require the construction Industry to improve standards and performance In the built environment. As a result, those involved in designing, supplying and building these greener structures are under greater scrutiny to find ways to prove that their buildings are constructed with sustainability In mind. This increasing demand for greener structures provides both challenges and opportunities to the reinforcing steel supply chain. Lee Brankley of CARES reports. In response to this challenge for credible and reliable environmental data, CARES has developed a sustainable reinforcing steel scheme that quantifies the environmental impact of the reinforcing steel supply chain.
