| Abstract |
Recently, various politics for reducing greenhouse gases have been promoted in home and abroad. In domestic construction fields, struggle for reducing greenhouse gas like carbon dioxide is being made a demand in domestic industry as well. In particular, most of greenhouse gases are resulted from using fossil fuels. Construction industry spends a quarter on the volume of fossil fuel consumption. Carbon dioxide is generated by various sources like production, transportation, construction, maintenance, removal stage in life cycle of buildings. Throughout buildings' life, construction wastes generated in construction or removal stage are a factor of CO2 emissions. In this paper, it is calculated CO2 emissions of construction wastes by types based on LCA and IPCC guideline. |
