Stainless Steel Prestressed Concrete Strand
Product information
This EPD covers Stainless Steel PC Strand. Sumiden Wire is the first US PC strand manufacturer to offer high-strength, low-relaxation stainless steel PC strands. This innovative new product is produced using a duplex alloy 2205 wire rod that is melted and manufactured here in the US; therefore compliant with all Buy-America and Buy-American requirements. These are applicable where high corrosion resistance and high tensile strength are required.
This EPD covers products under UN CPC Codes 42941 - Stranded wire, ropes, cables, plaited bands, slings, and the like, of iron or steel, not electrically insulated.
Disclaimers:
This EPD has been developed as part of a pilot project initiated by EPD North America on behalf of the North American market. Please reach out to EPD North America to find out more about this on this link: https://epdna.com/.
Not all requirements in the GPI are fulfilled, particularly the requirement, for construction products, to follow EN 15804 for certain aspects of the LCA method.
This EPD is based on a PCR that satisfies procurement rules at the federal, state, and municipal levels which call for EPDs based on the UL Part B PCR. The UL Part B PCR was used to meet regulatory (example: Buy Clean California Act, etc.) and market expectations (example: Building Transparency EC3 comparisons, LEED and existing vendor procurement requirements, product scoring programs, etc.). The EPD should not be used outside of this context.
