Description
Develop low-carbon construction materials prioritizing functionality and cost-efficiency, with an emphasis on concrete/cement and steel.
Description (French)
Mettre au point des matériaux de construction à faible émission de carbone en accordant la priorité à la fonctionnalité et à la rentabilité, en mettant l'accent sur le béton, le ciment et l'acier.
Expected Results
1. Provide a product that has significantly lower carbon emission than its current counterpart or demonstrate its ability to reduce embodied carbon in high carbon construction materials (i.e. cement/concrete, steel.
2. Disclose its total embodied carbon and demonstrate the claimed carbon emission reduction benefits using standard life cycle assessment (LCA) practices.
3. Demonstrate its cost-efficiency (i.e., similar to existing high carbon alternatives), impact and availability for large-scale deployment in projects across Canada.
4. Be a viable cost-effective solution for the construction industry, meaning that adopting the technology or material is not cost prohibitive.
Expected Results (French)
1. Fournir un produit dont les émissions de carbone sont considérablement plus faibles que celles de ses pairs actuels ou démontrer sa capacité de réduire le carbone incorporé dans les matériaux de construction à forte teneur en carbone (c.-à-d. Ciment, béton et acier).
2.Divulguer le total du carbone incorporé et démontrer les avantages de réduction des émissions de carbone allégués au moyen de pratiques normalisées d'analyse du cycle de vie (ACV).
3. Démontrer son rapport coût-efficacité (c.-à-d. semblable aux alternatives existantes a forte teneur en carbone), son incidence et sa disponitilité pour un déploiement à grande échelle dans des projets partout au Canada.
4. Être une solution viable et rentable pour l'industrie de la construction, ce qui signifie que l'adoption de la technologie ou du matériel n'est pas d'un coût prohibitif.
