A study on the calculation of eco toxicity potential of major construction waste in construction phase
through life cycle assessment

As the importance of eco toxicity reduction in the construction industry has come to the fore, there is an increasing interest
about life cycle assessment that comprehensively assesses environmental impact of buildings from production phase
to demolition phase. As a part of this effort, eco-friendly production systems in construction phase are being presented to
minimize eco toxicity potential from the life cycle perspective. As construction wastes are responsible for the most of overall
wastes and rate of increase in wastes, management of construction wastes is more importantly required. However, practical
management standards have not been established on construction wastes generated in construction phase.Accordingly, The
purpose of this study is to calculation of eco toxicitiy potential of major construction waste in construction phase through life
cycle assessment as part of an effort to develop an eco toxicitiy potential assessment program for buildings. To accomplish this,
the amount of construction waste discharged in the construction phase was analyzed using loss rate and weight conversion
factor in the Standard of Estimate for Construction Works. And the theoretical consideration of the life cycle assessment and
environmental impact category was performed and the direction of the study was set up. The classification was performed
about substance and impact index, such as Dichlorobenzene(C6H4Cl2) which is the base substance based on the impact indexes
suggested by the CML2001. And the environmental impact of eco toxicity potential for the construction waste was calculated
through the characterization. Meanwhile, the environmental impact of construction waste in the same category was analyze
based on the characterization impact which was calculated in this study.
