The need for life cycle assessment to inform environmental design within the built environment is critical, due to the complex range of materials and processes required to construct and manage our buildings and infrastructure systems.After outlining the framework for life cycle assessment, this book uses a range of case studies to demonstrate the innovative input-output-based hybr 606 $aBuilding materials$xService life 606 $aBuildings$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aBuilding materials$xRecycling 606 $aProduct life cycle 615 0$aBuilding materials$xService life. 615 0$aBuildings$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aBuilding materials$xRecycling. 615 0$aProduct life cycle. 676 $a624.1/8 700 $aCrawford$b Robert$f1978-,$01486507 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790093203321 996 $aLife cycle assessment in the built environment$93705996 997 $aUNINA
