Lowering Your Carbon Footprint with Cement Replacements

As the most widely used building material, concrete contributes significantly to manmade global carbon emissions, around 8%. Portland and Portland Limestone Cements are the primary source for the CO2 emissions associated with concrete. Cement replacements are an important and powerful tool to lower the carbon footprint of the mixes used on your projects. This session will explain how Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs) are used in concrete mixes to reduce carbon contents. New and traditional SCMs will be detailed and SCM Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) will be referenced to highlight why they are considered vital tools in the production of low carbon concrete. The course will also explain the multiple benefits of using SCMs in relation to concrete strength, durability, and utility across a wide variety of project applications.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered via webinar or face-to-face presentation. Available sessions shown below.
