Concrete production causes significant environmental damage during its entire life cycle due to the large consumption of natural aggregate. The aim of this research was to use the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology to conduct a comparative analysis of four different concrete mixtures, i.e., construction and demolition waste (CDW), incinerator ashes, marble sludge, and blast furnace slag ...

LCCA is a process of evaluating the economic performance of a building over its entire life. Sometimes known as "whole cost accounting" or "total cost of ownership," LCCA balances initial monetary investment with the long-term expense of owning and operating the building. LCCA is based upon the assumptions that multiple building design ...

Weighted Average. The weighted-average method relies on average unit cost to calculate cost of units sold and ending inventory. Average cost is determined by dividing total cost of goods available for sale by total units available for sale. Mueller Hardware paid $306 for 270 pounds, producing an average cost of $1.13333 per pound ($306/270).

There are many reasons why concrete masonry is a sustainable building material: Long-life - Concrete masonry structures are long-lived, service life of 50+ years. Low life-cycle cost - Concrete masonry consumes minimum materials, energy and other resources for construction, and requires little to no maintenance throughout its service life.

A cement plant consists of four wet process kilns producing approximately 1.3M tons of clinker per year. Alongside the "old" plant, a modern dry process plant was built with a design capacity of 2.15M tons per year. Once the new plant was commissioned, the plan was to decommission two of the existing wet process kilns.

Features of Process Costing. The plant has various divisions, and each division is a stage of production. The production is carried out continuously, by way of the simultaneous, standardized and sequential process. The output of a process is the input of another. The production from the last process is transferred to finished stock.
