LIFE CYCLE ANALYSIS
Describe the life cycle information / considerations
The Product Environmental Profiles are limited to the total green house gas emissions associated with the growing, manufacturing and transportation of the product (cradle to gate) minus the long-term carbon storage of the product in use. In comparison, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) performed in accordance with ISO 14044 uses Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) inputs consisting of aggregated data across a broader set of boundary conditions. The Consortium for Research on Renewable Industrial Materials (CORRIM) Phase 1 report (available at http://www.corrim.org/reports/2006/final_phase_1/index.htm) provides a useful demonstration of an LCA methodology and shows the advantages of wood relative to concrete or steel alternatives.
