Hi, Following up on this topic again.
Understand currently eTool has LCI database for concrete with different % of SCM replacement (either Fly Ash or Blast Furnace Slag).
Projects are starting to adopt Ternary Blend (ie composition of OPC, FA and BFS) to balance Sustainability, Shrinkage, durability factors. Any chance eTool will develop or allow projects to customize different concrete mix design to capture their environmental benefits in LCA? ISCA’s IS Materials Calculator allows such detailed assessment. Is it possible that we adopt IS Material Calculator’s results and incorporate into eTool? Hoping such feature to be considered as the industry is moving towards lowering embodied carbon.
