Скачать или смотреть Concrete: take action to cut carbon

Recent updates to the BS 8500 concrete standard mean that there are now more lower carbon options available for use, helping architects and engineers decarbonise buildings and infrastructure. Traditional concrete is made up of CEM I, which mostly consists of Portland cement clinker. Until recently it could be combined with Fly Ash or ground granulated blast furnace slag (GBBS), by-products from the power and steel industries.

In the most significant update to concrete mixes since the 1980s, limestone fines can now be added as a third component.
