Abstract :
[en] The technical objective of this project is to disseminate the knowledge acquired in the recent years
about the environmental impact assessment of steel and composite buildings.
During the last decade, a lot of research projects have been funded to develop methodologies,
systems and products aiming at improving the thermal efficiency as well as the global
environmental footprint of steel buildings.
The new standard EN15804 intended for environmental calculation of buildings takes now into
account the fact that steel is a recyclable material (Module D).
So the objective of this project is to summarise all this acquired knowledge into different
documents (Background, Design guide, leaflet, User-friendly Software), to translate all these
training and teaching support into the different European languages and finally to disseminate
amongst Europe by the organisation of workshops.
