Abstract
There is an urgent need to develop sustainable infrastructure solutions. Considering this, it is of great importance to conduct LCA analysis due to the overall impact of the construction sector, which is around 30% of the energy consumption worldwide. Furthermore, the transport sector accounts for 24% of the total CO2 emissions. In light of this, the ELISA project, to which this thesis refers to, aims at improving the sustainability of infrastructures, by reducing energy and resource consumption, and creating a platform where it is possible to share knowledge and information, obtained using various technologies (J. D. Rodriguez Millan, 2024). The main objective of this thesis is to evaluate the environmental impact of port pavements, through the use of the Life Cycle Assessment.
In order to achieve that a concrete block pavement, employed at Norvik port, Sweden, is analysed and compared with two other design solutions, a concrete and a flexible pavement
