도로 노면표시 공사가 유발하는 탄소 발생량 추정 = Estimation of Carbon Emission Caused by Road-Marking Works

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aimed to assess the current global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and understand the domestic scenario, particularly focusing on pavement-marking works during road-construction projects. Using internationally commercialized programs, this study aimed to calculate carbon emissions from these projects, identify areas that require further action or improvement, and propose strategies to address them.
This study assessed the current global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and understand the domestic scenario, particularly focusing on pavement-marking works during road-construction projects. Using internationally commercialized programs, this study aimed to calculate carbon emissions from these projects, identify areas that require further action or improvement, and propose strategies to address them.
Carbon dioxide emissions from pavement-marking projects were estimated. For a 5,746 m2 construction project, a total of 96.637 was emitted; for a 5,032 m2 project with four types of markings, 89.840 was emitted. A project involving five types of markings, traffic controls, and safety measures resulted in 6.662 emissions. On average, 16.8 was emitted per 1 m2, with 17.8 for the four types and 9.3 for the five types of markings.
This study is significant because it calculated the carbon dioxide emissions from domestic pavement-marking works. The use of unit price data is convenient, and for more accurate calculations, expanding environmental product declaration (EPD) certified items and accelerating the establishment of a domestic life-cycle inventory (LCI) are recommended.
