Cradle-to-Gate Life Cycle of ConcreteBusiness-to-Business EPD and Cradle-to-Gate LCA

This EPD is intended for use in Business to Business (B-to-B) communication. The scope of this EPD is cradle-to-gate and considers the following life cycle stages.

• A1 - Raw Material Supply: Includes all upstream processes related to extraction, handling, and processing of theraw materials and intermediate component products as well as fuels used in the production of concrete. Componentproducts include cement, supplementary cementitious materials, aggregate (coarse and fine), water, admixtures andother materials or chemicals used in concrete mixtures.

• A2 - Transportation: Accounts for the transportation of all input materials and fuels from the supplier to the gate ofthe concrete plant.

• A3 - Manufacturing (Core Processes): Includes all core processes and the energy and water used to store, move,batch and mix the concrete and operate the concrete plant as well as the transportation and processing of wastesfrom these core processes.

Methodology of Underlying LCA

Declared Unit

The declared units are 1 cubic meter and 1 cubic yard for 30 ready mixed concrete products. Key product variables include:

• Compressive Strength: Compressive strengths are represented in the 30 mix designs and include the number ofdays after pouring as a part of the reference value: e.g. 3,000 psi (20.7 MPa) @ 28 days; 4,000 psi (27.6 MPa) @ 56 days;6,000 psi (31.0 MPa) @ 90 days, etc.;

• Water to cementious materials ratio (w/cm): as per mix design specification provided by CalPortland in accor-dance with ACI 211.1;

• SCM reactivity: as per mix design specification provided by CalPortland in accordance with ACI 211.1;• Admixtures use: Admixture use was specified for the different mixes that were modeled. These admixtures includ-

ed an air-entraining admixture, water reducing and accelerating admixtures, and high range water reducer admix-tures.

Product (mix design) components include: portland cement, fly ash, natural and crushed aggregates, admixtures and batch water.

Scope of LCA

A summary of life cycle stages included in the EPD is as follows: • Raw Material Supply (upstream processes): Extraction, handling

and processing of the raw materials used in production of concrete: cement, supplementary cementitious materials, aggregate (coarse and fine), water, admixtures and other materials or chemicals used in concrete mixtures.

• Transportation: Transportation of these materials from supplier tothe ‘gate’ of the concrete producer.

• Manufacturing (core processes): The energy used to store, batch,mix and distribute the concrete and operate the facility (concrete plant)

• Water use in mixing and distributing concrete.

A summary of processes excluded from the EPD is as follows: • Production, manufacture and construction of buildings, capital

goods and infrastructure. • Production and manufacture of concrete production equipment,

concrete delivery vehicles, earthmoving equipment and laboratory equipment.

• Personnel-related activities (travel, furniture, office supplies).• Energy and water use related to company management and sales

activities.

Cut-off Rules

The cut-off criteria for all activity stage flows considered within the sys-tem boundary conform with ISO14044:2006 and section 3.3 of the gov-erning PCR. Specifically, the cut-off criteria were applied as follows:

• All inputs and outputs for which data are available are included in the calculated effects and no collected core processdata are excluded.

• A one percent cut-off is considered for renewable and non-renewable primary energy consumption and the total massof inputs within a unit process. The sum of the total neglected flows does not exceed 5% of all energy consumption andmass of inputs.

• All flows known to contribute a significant impact or to uncertainty (e.g., portland cement and admixtures) are included.• The cut-off rules are not applied to hazardous and toxic material flows – all of which are included in the life cycle inven-

tory.

Allocation

The applied allocation procedures conform with ISO14044 clause 4.3.4.

Note: CalPortland’s Tumwater plant is a truck-mixing plant where the concrete mixing occurs within mixer trucks after they are loaded and at the project site; for these operations, a portion of the de-livery truck’s energy use that would typ-ically be captured under “Construction and Process Stage” A4-Transportation (to site) is allocated to the mixing of con-crete for truck-mixing plants and is cap-tured in information module A3. This system boundary refinement address-es the difference between truck-mix-ing and central-mixing concrete plants where the latter plant type fully mixes the concrete prior to loading the con-crete into delivery trucks. This EPD has been prepared in accordance with the guidance provided in clarifications 1, 2, and 3 of Version 1.1 PCR (6/1/2015).

Limitations

The limitations of this EPD include:

• This EPD does not report all of the environmental impacts due to manufacturing of the product, but rather reportsthe environmental impacts for those categories with established LCA-based methods to track and report. Unreportedenvironmental impacts include (but are not limited to) factors attributable to human health, land use change, andhabitat destruction.

• In order to assess the local impacts of product manufacturing , additional analysis is required.• This EPD reports the results of an LCA or the ‘cradle-to-gate’ analysis. Thus, declarations themselves are not compar-

ative assertions, defined as an environmental claim regarding the superiority or equivalence of one product versus acompeting product that perfroms the same function. An EPD does not make any statements that the product covered by the EPD is better or worse than any other product.

• CalPortland may participate in other sustainability or environmental best practice programs. However, no such addi-tional environmental claim or declaration is conveyed in this EPD.

• EPDs of concrete mixtures may not be comparable if they do not comply with this standard and data from this EPD.The data cannot be used to compare between concrete mixes, construction products or concrete mixtures used indifferent concrete products unless the data is integrated into a comprehensive LCA. For example, precast concrete,concrete masonry units and site cast concrete all have different manufacturing processes whose impacts are attributed to different LCA stages. This precludes direct comparison between mixtures used in these different products unless alllife cycle phases are included.

• Life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) results are relative expressions and do not predict impacts on category endpoints,the exceeding of thresholds, safety margins or risks.

• This EPD was created using industry-average data for upstream materials. Variation can result from differences insupplier locations, manufacturing processes, manufacturing efficiency and fuel type used.

Data Sources and Data Quality Assessment

This EPD is based on foreground LCI data collected from CalPortland’s production facilities. All upstream material, resource and energy carrier inputs have been sourced from various industry-average datasets and literature. Many of these data sets are defaulted to those specified for use in the CLF PCR. Care was taken to fill known data gaps (dummies) as recorded in the USLCI database profiles. Tables 2 to 4 describe each LCI data source for raw materials (A1), transportation by mode (A2), the RMC core manufacture process (A3), and descriptions of data quality for each data source.

This EPD was created using industry-average data for upstream materials. Variation can result from differences in supplier locations, manufacturing processes, manufacturing efficiency and fuel type used.

Data Quality

Data quality/variability requirements, as specified in the CLF PCR: 2013 sections 3.5 and 3.6, are applied. This section de-scribes the achieved data quality relative to the ISO 14044:2006 requirements. Data quality is judged on the basis of its precision (measured, calculated or estimated), completeness (e.g., unreported emissions), consistency (degree of unifor-mity of the methodology applied within a study serving as a data source) and representativeness (geographical, temporal, and technological).

Precision: Through measurement and calculation, the manufacturer collected and provided primary data on their annual production RMC products. For accuracy, the LCA team validated these plant gate-to-gate input and output data.

Completeness: All relevant specific processes, including inputs (raw materials, energy and ancillary materials) and outputs (emissions and production volume) were considered and modeled to represent the specified and declared RMC products. The relevant background materials and processes were taken from the US LCI Database (adjusted for known data place-holders)and US system boundary adjusted ecoinvent v 2.2 and v3.0 LCI databases were modeled in SimaPro software v.8.0.1, 2014.

Consistency: To ensure consistency, the LCI modeling of the production weighted input and output LCI data for the de-clared products used the same modeling structure across the respective product systems, which consisted of input raw and ancillary material, energy flows, water resource inputs, product and co-products outputs, returned and recovered concrete materials, emissions to air, water and soil, and waste recycling and treatment. The same background LCI datasets from the SimaPro LCI database were used across all RMC product systems. Crosschecks concerning the plausibility of mass and energy flows were continuously conducted. The LCA team conducted mass and energy balances at the plant and se-lected process level to maintain a high level of consistency.

Reproducibility: Internal reproducibility is possible since the data and the models are stored and available in a SimaPro database for all background processes, and in Athena’s proprietary concrete LCA calculator* for all production facility and mix-specific calculations. A considerable level of transparency is provided throughout the LCA report as the specifications and material quantity make-up for the declared RMC products are presented and key primary and secondary LCI data sources are summarized. The provision of more detailed data to allow full external reproducibility was not possible due to reasons of confidentiality. * Athena has developed a propietary excel-based tool that allows the calculation of PCR-compliant LCA results for ready-mixed concrete product mix designs. The tool scales results for base-unit technosphere inputs (i.e. 1lb port-land cement, 1 kWh electricity, etc.) to replicate the reference flow conversions that take place in SimaPro. The tool was tested against the NRMCA average LCA results (Athena SMI, 2014) that were developed exclusviely in SimaPro and generated results within 1-2% in every impact category and inventory metric.

Representativeness: The representativeness of the data is summarized as follows.

• Time related coverage of the manufacturing processes’ primary collected data: 2014 (12 months).• Upstream (background) LCI data was either the PCR specified default or more appropriate LCI datasets as found in the

US LCI (adjusted) Database, US adjusted ecoinvent v.2.2 and v.3.0 database, 2014.• Geographical coverage for the cement and RMC plant operations is Washington, USA; other upstream and background

processes are based on North American average data.• Technological coverage is typical or average – specific to CalPortland’s Dupont, Duwamish, and Tumwater facilities for

all primary data.

15 Non-hazardous waste NHW kg*HHV, higher heating value (also called gross calorific value) is the heat of combustion of a given amount of fuel that includes the calorific value of condensing the water content of the fuel (the heat of vaporization). The lower heating value (LHV) excludes the heat of vaporization of the water content and thus the HHV is equal to the LHV plus the heat of vapor-ization.
