SUSTAINABILITY IN STEEL STRUCTURES
Sustainable Construction
• Nature climate change
• Carbon emissions, energy consumption, raw materials, resources, wastes
• Much less waste
• Recycle [use, recovery, recycling]
• Conservation of species and biodiversity
• Steel recycling = Less ore Use
• Structural steels are produced by recycling with reclaimed steel products.
• Buildings are not demolished because steel is made from scrap
• Steel is the building material with the highest economic recycling rate worldwide.
• 99% recovered structural steel, 100% recycled
• Structural steel can be recycled endlessly.
• Steel life cycle
• Quality is increased in steel recycling.
• High strength steels reduce material usage.
The use of high-strength structural steels reduces the carbon footprint. BA Core, steel columns, composite floors, Building mass is 50% less. Less energy use in manufacturing, transportation and assembly ensures the continuation of sustainability.
