Publication metadata
The technical objective of this project was 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). The project was divided in 4 steps: Realisation of documentation and software about sustainability of steel structures; Translation of the documentation and software interface; Training for partners involved in seminars; Organisation of the Seminars in the different European countries. There is also a dissemination package which consists in different documents and software which are available on the website http://sustainable-steel.eu/ : Design guide; Background document; Software AMECO which is also available on www.arcelormittal.com/ sections; App version (mobiles/tablets) of LCA calculations, available also in App Store (Apple) and Google Play (Android); Leaflet; PowerPoint presentations; All the documents translated into nearly all the European languages. Seminars were also organised by the different partners in 16 different countries in their local language.
