General comment The Büscher wall, approved by the German Institute for Building Technology (DIBt) under the number Z-3.51-2184, is a concrete wall produced out of recycled concrete. It aims to dispense the use of primary raw materials such as gravel and sand and instead relies on recycled building materials such as natural stone substitute. This replacement material consists of mixed construction waste (similar to type 3). The fine portion of the aggregate (<200 mm) can also be substituted. The EPD is created on the basis of the standard thickness for the Büscher-Wall, which is 14cm. As the wall comes in different thicknesses, a conversion factor can be used on the inputs and results to get the data for the specific differing thicknesses. These are as follows: 14 cm : Standard thickness → factor 1; 12 cm : Lowest thickness → factor 0,8571; 16 cm : Moderate thickness → factor 1,1429; 18 cm : Maximum thickness → factor 1,2857. The product is being distributed as bulk material. |
