Original Abstract

The paper presents a helpful tool for the management of sustainability, which enables its quantification and the comparison of mixture variants for the production of concrete with an emphasis on degradation effects (e.g. strength, resistance to carbonation, resistance against the penetration of chloride ions, frost resistance, and others) and hence issues of durability. Simple formulae in which service life, performance and eco-costs appear are presented for sustainability coefficients, kTU. The aim of the task is to compare the variants of the group of the mixtures being examined, and not to determine/describe the sustainability value directly.
