By M. Tamura, T. Noguchi and F. Tomosawai

Concrete Journal, Vol.41, No.12, Dec. 2003


Synopsis
Nowadays, it is likely to be possible to consider the environmental capacity on the earth when we put industrial activity into practice. As the result, it seems to be difficult to expect the stable and sustainable development of concrete structures from a viewpoint of verifying economic efficiency for producing concrete structures, and it would be necessary for concrete structures to take social equity and environmental prudence into consideration. This papers was illustrated the life cycle design methodology toward resource conservation of concrete constituent materials which was based on the conception of recycle-design strategy for concrete structures and the forward-inverse process production system of concrete structures which was integrated a forward process with a inverse process.
