EPD-IES-0025896:003

Prefabricated reinforced concrete beams and columns

The declared products are prefabricated reinforced concrete beams and columns designed for structural use in industrial, logistics, and commercial buildings. The elements are custom-engineered to meet project-specific static and geometric requirements and are produced using high-performance concrete and ribbed reinforcing steel. Depending on the application, prestressing technology may also be employed. These products play a critical role in the load-bearing structure of buildings, ensuring stiffness, stability, and long-term durability. Their prefabricated nature allows for efficient on-site assembly, reduction in construction time, and improved quality control. Prefabricated bar elements manufactured by GOLDBECK Comfort are designed in accordance with the PN-EN 13225 standard and other applicable standards, meeting the highest requirements in terms of load-bearing capacity, durability and quality of workmanship. We offer solutions tailored to various structural applications, from simple load-bearing elements to more complex system solutions. These products include columns, beams, girders, joists, etc.

Ownership and limitation on use of EPD

Limitations

EPDs within the same product category but published in different EPD programmes, may not be comparable. For two EPDs to be comparable, they shall be based on the same PCR (including the same first-digit version number) or be based on fully aligned PCRs or versions of PCRs; cover products with identical functions, technical performances and use (e.g. identical declared/functional units); have identical scope in terms of included life-cycle stages (unless the excluded life-cycle stage is demonstrated to be insignificant); apply identical impact assessment methods (including the same version of characterisation factors); and be valid at the time of comparison.

Ownership

The EPD Owner has the sole ownership, liability, and responsibility for the EPD.
