Abstract
The purpose of the research work is to analyse environmental impacts of building materials applied to the construction of family houses in the boundaries Cradle to Gate with Options. Within Life cycle analysis (LCA), environmental impacts such as global warming potential (GWP), ozone depletion (OP), acidification potential (AP), eutrophication potential (EP), photochemical ozone creation potential (POCP), non-hazardous waste disposal (NHWD) and biogenic carbon storage (BGS) are determined by using One Click LCA tool. This approach is selected to bring information about current state of construction trend used in Slovakia, to set a starting point for further critical reviews of different strategies as well as to inform about the impact significance of current selection of building materials. Results show that the biggest contribution to GWP are triple glazed exterior wooden doors and windows with aluminium elements, thermal insulation and reinforced concrete.
