Abstract: | This study develops a dynamic substance-flow model to characterize the stocks and flows of cement utilized during the 20th century in USA. Generic cement life cycle is used as a systems boundary. The motivation for estimating historical inventories of cement stocks and flows is to provide accurate estimates of contemporary cement in-use stocks in U.S. infrastructure. Such information will assist in planning future rehabilitation projects and better life cycle management of infrastructure systems. |
