Comparison of infrastructure designs for quay wall and small bridges in concrete, steel, wood and composites with regard to the co2-emission and the life cycle analysis

This paper describes quay wall and bridge designs in different materials, which are compared with regard the the CO2-emission and the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA). For this study the requirements and boundary conditions from the Euromax Terminal quay wall, in the Port of Rotterdam, have been used. The preliminary designs of the quay wall (made...

In this paper quay wall designs in different materials are compared with regard to the CO2-emission and the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA). For this study the requirements and boundary conditions of the quay wall in the Euromax Terminal, the Port of Rotterdam, have been used. An overview of preliminary designs of the tender phase with a concrete...
