I’m trying to understand what are the implications of specifying lower carbon concrete and would appreciate any insights to this. Ideally, I want to be in a position to spec a certain % of cement replacements in a mix and give a rough idea of what the cost implications are and what the impact may be…

What are the implications of specifying low carbon concrete?

The NY/NJ Port Authority has specified at least 30% cement replacement since the late 1990s. If you email me at susan.dorward@raritanval.edu I can send you their spec document and contact information.
