Coefficients have been produced for the following flows:<div><br></div><div>- energy</div><div>- water</div><div>- waste</div><div>- greenhouse gas emissions</div><div>- land</div><div>- material resources</div><div><br></div><div>The coefficients represent the quantity of a certain flow (e.g. energy) associated with (or embodied in) the production of a certain material (i.e. also known as a material's embodied enegy in this case).</div><div><br></div><div>Coefficients can be multiplied by available material quantities extracted as part of a bill of materials to determine the embodied flows for a particular construction project.</div><div><br></div><div>These coefficients have been compiled using a path exchange hybrid approach, utilising best available process and input-output data. Further details about their compilation can be found in the associated report.</div>
