The L. M. Scofield Co. has published the first two in a series of white papers on sustainable construction and decorative concrete.
This new series of white papers will have a focus on environmental stewardship.
The first Scofield Report, titled “How Concrete Contributes to Today’s Green Designs,” provides an overview of the green building movement, discusses concrete’s environmental impact, describes how sustainability is documented, explains why achieving certification is important, and details how concrete earns green points in a building or hardscape project.
The second Report, titled “Design and Construction of Pervious Concrete Pavement,” provides an overview of pervious concrete, describes the benefits of pervious concrete, explains pervious concrete’s green value, discusses design, maintenance and construction methods, and provides information on adding color and texture to pervious projects.
