Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has become a key tool for evaluating the environmental impacts of products and processes. This study applies the LCA methodology to generate industrial inventory data for generic wood products used to assess the environmental impacts of two wood-based construction materials: structural sawn timber and glued laminated timber. The data have been contextualized for Spain, with a specific focus on the A3 manufacturing module. A comparison was carried out across different wood species and product types, highlighting both the benefits of using natural materials and significant differences in environmental impacts. The results underscore the advantages of incorporating wood-based products in construction, particularly within the framework of a more sustainable approach to building. This work provides valuable data for designers, manufacturers, and policymakers, supporting the transition toward lower-impact materials in the construction sector.

摘要

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has become a key tool for evaluating the environmental impacts of products and processes. This study applies the LCA methodology to generate industrial inventory data for generic wood products used to assess the environmental impacts of two wood-based construction materials: structural sawn timber and glued laminated timber. The data have been contextualized for Spain, with a specific focus on the A3 manufacturing module. A comparison was carried out across different wood species and product types, highlighting both the benefits of using natural materials and significant differences in environmental impacts. The results underscore the advantages of incorporating wood-based products in construction, particularly within the framework of a more sustainable approach to building. This work provides valuable data for designers, manufacturers, and policymakers, supporting the transition toward lower-impact materials in the construction sector.
