On Thursday, February 11, at 11 a.m. Eastern time, the MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub (CSHub) will present its first public webinar of 2021, Challenges and Opportunities of Using Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) in Environmental Performance Comparisons of Concrete presented by CSHub Executive Director Jeremy Gregory and Postdoctoral Associate Hessam AzariJafari.
In this webinar, the information existing in the current and past concrete EPDs will be discussed and the challenges of using these documents for assessing the environmental embodied emissions of concrete mix designs will be detailed. Furthermore, recommendations and opportunities for improving the product category rules and framework development for comparative analysis of concrete embodied emissions will be provided in order to improve the power of decision-making without compromising the robustness of the decision.
Please note that while registration for this webinar is free, it is required. For more information, contact Andrew Logan at alogan@mit.edu.
