EPD: Structural steel product, hot-rolled, 7850 kg/m3 (Gerdau, Cartersville plant (2022))
Gerdau is a global leader in the production of hot-rolled structural products. Gerdau Structural steel is manufactured from recycled steel – both pre-consumer and post-consumer scrap, demonstrating the company’s commitment to environmentally-responsible steel production. From hospitals in Montreal to schools in Texas, from data halls to fulfillment centers across North America, and from the Panama Canal to the bays of Alaska, Gerdau beams and piling products have proven the company’s commitment to consistently high production standards. Gerdau produces four distinct beam shapes in North America, providing a range of geometries to suit applications from construction to manufacturing. Gerdau also produces three primary categories of piling, typically used in deep foundation and geo-technical construction projects, such as foundations, marine, environmental and transportation. The Cartersville Steel Mill in Georgia produces Wide Flange Beams, Standard I-Beams and other structural size shapes. This Environmental Product Declaration is for 1 metric ton of fabricated structural steel produced by Gerdau in the Cartersville Steel Mill. Structural steel is manufactured from steel scrap, melted in an Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) followed by hot rolling, and by transport to external fabrication shops for fabrication of the final product.
