RENOBUILD
Sustainable renovation of buildings with a decision tool
In Renobuild SP has in collaboration with partners developed a
methodology for evaluating different renovation options based on
environmental, economic and social perspective.
One result is a LCA-calculating tool made in Excel. The tool calculates
the change in environmental impact from a lifecycle perspective, which
includes material and transports for renovation, changes in yearly energy
consumption, changes in how the heating is produced and finally the end
of life treatment of the material.

ROBUST LCA
I
How to use LCA for a robust comparison of construction products or construction
works.
I
First part deals with a general methodology problems related to LCA
I
Second part deals with the question when to use to attributional or consequential
LCA
I
Includes specifications to EN 15804, as well as the potential development for
aspects that are not handled in this standard today.
I
Suggestions and recommendations are the result of a series of workshops, with
delegates from different parties within the Swedish building material, construction
and real estate sector, including civil engineering work.
