NIST Releases Construction Materials Repository
The Engineering Laboratory (EL) in collaboration with the Material Measurement Laboratory (MML) released the first National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) repository on the Federal LCA Commons (FLCAC): a set of construction material product models built using data from the FLCAC. This repository contains concrete and gypsum board supply chain data. Concrete's supply chain includes limestone quarrying, clinker, and Portland cement production, and aggregates quarrying and crushing.
