Sustainability of construction works - Sustainability assessment of civil engineering works - Calculation methods
This document establishes the requirements and specific methods for the assessment of environmental, economic and social performances of a civil engineering works while taking into account the civil engineering works’ functionality and technical characteristics. By the means of this document the decision making for a project is supported by providing a standardized method for enabling comparability of scheme options.
The assessment of environmental and economic performances of a civil engineering works is based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Life Cycle Cost (LCC), Whole-Life Cost (WLC) and other quantified environmental and economic information. The approach to the assessment covers all stages of the civil engineering works life cycle and includes all civil engineering works related construction products, processes and services, used over its life cycle.
This document is applicable to new and existing civil engineering works and refurbishment projects. The environmental performance is based on data obtained from Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) and additional indicators.
This document is not applicable for the assessment of the environmental, social and economic performance of building(s) as part of the civil engineering works; instead, EN 15978, EN 16309 and EN 16627 apply.
Nachhaltigkeit von Bauwerken -- Nachhaltigkeitsbewertung von Ingenieurbauwerken - Rechenverfahren
Dieses Dokument legt die Anforderungen und speziellen Verfahren für die Bewertung der umweltbezogenen, ökonomischen und sozialen Qualität eines Ingenieurbauwerkes unter Berücksichtigung der Funktionalität und technischen Merkmale und Eigenschaften des Ingenieurbauwerks fest. Durch dieses Dokument wird die Entscheidungsfindung bei einem Projekt unterstützt, indem ein genormtes Verfahren bereitgestellt wird, das die Vergleichbarkeit von Programmoptionen ermöglicht.
Die Bewertung der umweltbezogenen und ökonomischen Qualität eines Ingenieurbauwerks beruht auf der Ökobilanz (LCA), den Lebenszykluskosten (LCC), den Kosten über den gesamten Lebenszyklus (WLC) sowie weiteren quantifizierten umweltbezogenen und ökonomischen Angaben. Der Bewertungsansatz umfasst alle Phasen des Lebenszyklus des Ingenieurbauwerkes und schließt alle mit dem Ingenieurbauwerk verbundenen Bauprodukte, Prozesse und Dienstleistungen ein, die über dessen Lebenszyklus genutzt werden.
Dieses Dokument ist für neue und bereits bestehende Ingenieurbauwerke sowie für Modernisierungsprojekte anwendbar. Die umweltbezogene Qualität beruht auf Daten, die von Umweltproduktdeklarationen (EPD) und weiteren Indikatoren stammen.
Dieses Dokument ist nicht für die Bewertung der umweltbezogenen, sozialen und ökonomischen Qualität von Gebäuden als Teil des Ingenieurbauwerks anwendbar; stattdessen gelten EN 15978, EN 16309 und EN 16627.
Contribution des ouvrages de construction au développement durable - Évaluation de la contribution au développement durable des ouvrages de génie civil - Méthodes de calcul
Le présent document établit les exigences et méthodes spécifiques pour l'évaluation des performances environnementales, économiques et sociales d'un ouvrage de génie civil tout en tenant compte de la fonctionnalité et des caractéristiques techniques de cet ouvrage. Le présent document facilite la prise de décision pour un projet en fournissant une méthode normalisée permettant de comparer les différentes options.
L'évaluation des performances environnementale et économique d'un ouvrage de génie civil est basée sur l'analyse du cycle de vie (ACV), le coût du cycle de vie (CCV), le coût global du cycle de vie (WLC) et d'autres informations environnementales et économiques quantifiées. L'approche de l'évaluation couvre toutes les étapes du cycle de vie des ouvrages de génie civil, y compris tous les produits, procédés et services de construction liés à ces ouvrages, et utilisés tout au long de leur cycle de vie.
Le présent document s'applique aux ouvrages de génie civil neufs et existants, ainsi qu'aux projets de réhabilitation. Les performances environnementales sont basées sur les données obtenues à partir des Déclarations Environnementales de Produits (DEP) et d'indicateurs supplémentaires.
Le présent document n'est pas applicable à l'évaluation des performances environnementales, sociales et économiques des bâtiments faisant partie d'ouvrages de génie civil. Les normes EN 15978, EN 16309 et EN 16627 s'appliquent.
Trajnostnost gradbenih objektov - Ocenjevanje trajnostnosti gradbenih inženirskih objektov - Računske metode
Dokument podaja posebne metode in zahteve za ocenjevanje okoljskih, gospodarskih ter družbenih učinkov gradbenih inženirskih objektov, pri čemer upošteva funkcionalnost in tehnične značilnosti gradbenega inženirskega objekta. Glavni cilj tega dokumenta je olajšati postopke odločanja pri posameznem projektu z zagotavljanjem standardizirane metode za omogočanje primerljivosti možnosti sistemov. Dokument ni namenjen uporabi za razvoj trajnostnih oznak, vendar takšna uporaba ni izključena.
Ocenjevanje okoljskih in gospodarskih učinkov gradbenih inženirskih objektov temelji na oceni življenjskega cikla (LCA), stroških življenjskega cikla (LLC), celotnih stroških v življenjski dobi (WLC) ter drugih količinsko opredeljenih okoljskih in gospodarskih podatkih. Pristop k oceni zajema vse faze življenjskega cikla gradbenih inženirskih objektov ter vključuje vse gradbene proizvode, postopke in storitve, povezane z gradbenimi inženirskimi objekti, ki se uporabljajo skozi njihov celoten življenjski cikel. Ta dokument se uporablja za nove in obstoječe gradbene inženirske objekte in obnovitvene projekte. Ocena okoljskega učinka temelji na podatkih, pridobljenih iz okoljskih deklaracij o proizvodih (EPD) in dodatnih kazalnikov.
Ocena družbenega učinka se razlikuje od ocene gospodarskih in okoljskih vidikov, saj hkrati zahteva tako kvantitativni kot deskriptivni pristop.
Dokument podaja zahteve za:
– opis predmeta ocene;
– mejo sistema, ki velja za raven gradbenih inženirskih objektov;
– postopek, ki ga je treba uporabljati za analizo;
– opredelitev kazalnikov, ki jih je treba deklarirati, podatke, ki jih je treba navesti ter način njihovega zbiranja in sporočanja;
– predstavitev rezultatov pri poročanju in komuniciranju;
– podatke, potrebne za uporabo standarda in za izračun.
Kadar sredstvo v okviru gradbenih inženirskih objektov vključuje zgradbo/zgradbe, se za ocenjevanje zgradbe/zgradb uporabljajo standard EN 15978 za okoljski učinek, standard EN 16309 za družbeni učinek in standard EN 16627 za gospodarski učinek.

Introduction
This document provides rules for the assessment of the sustainability of civil engineering works including
environmental, economic and social aspects.
Figure 1 illustrates how the assessment of the environmental, economic and social performances fits
within the concept of the sustainability assessment of a civil engineering works.
NOTE The outer box with the dashed line represents the area standardized by CEN/TC 350 – Sustainability of
construction works.
Figure 1 — Concept of sustainability assessment of civil engineering works
Those economic, social or environmental requirements not expressed in the sustainability assessment
are communicated, too.
This document supports quantification of the contribution of the assessed civil engineering works to
sustainable construction and sustainable development.
The evaluation of technical and functional performance is beyond the scope of this document. Technical
and functional characteristics are taken into account here by reference to the functional equivalent, which
also forms a basis for comparison of the results of assessments.
Although the assessment of technical and functional performance does not form part of this seri
