3 Product Product description: Welded and coated sections, trusses and beams made of hotrolled plate, sheet and coil for use in building construction projects. Steel structures are highly prefabricated, readytoinstall, energyefficient solutions for single and multistorey buildings. A frame solution for multistorey buildings usually consists of workshopprimed WQ beams and coated composite columns, which can be used to create modifiable premises. Typical singlestorey buildings are constructed using prefabricated trusses. There are also many fire protection solutions available for frames. The steel in the steel structures under this environmental product declaration is sourced from Ruukki s steel works in Raahe, Finland. The amount of scrap steel used varies between around 2 3 % of the steel charge depending on the steel grade and method of manufacture. In 212, the average value was 2%. Use of energy and raw materials has been optimised in steel production. Technical description: This environmental product declaration covers steel structures made by Ruukki in Peräseinäjoki and Ylivieska (Finland), Gargzdai (Lithuania) and in Oborniki (Poland). Choice of production site is determined according to, for example, product requirements and construction site location. Steel made in Raahe steel mill in Finland is used in the structures. Steel structures include steel beams, girders, columns, trusses, bonds and embedded fixtures made in conformity with EN 19 standard. Welded sections and WQ beams are made from hotrolled, plate, sheet and coil. Trusses and structural tubes are made of coldformed tube. Steel plates, tubes or sections are first cut by flame cutting or sawing to the required length and then welded together, shot blasted and coated with paint. Surface treatment causes volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions of approximately 5 per tonne produced. VOC emissions per tonne depend, however, on the weight of the structure and the chosen painting system. Coating is chosen according to customer requirements and the corrosivity category. Coating is done using 1 3 layers of either polyurethane, zinc powder, alkyd or epoxy paint. Coating thickness is 136 µm depending on the corrosivity category. If fireretardant paint is required, it is added between the primer and top coat in frames. Coating thickness of fireretardant paint depends on fire resistance requirements. Market: Norway Product specification: Steel is an alloy of mainly iron and carbon, with small amounts of elements used as alloying elements. These elements improve the chemical and physical properties of steel such as strength, durability and corrosion resistance. The alloying elements of steel are closely linked to its chemical matrix. The steel used in steel structures meets the quality criteria for steel according to EN standards. Welding consumables and coatings are the other raw materials used in the manufacture of steel structures. Measures are done to a level of,2 µg/g (,2%). Concentrations below this degree of measuring accuracy cannot be determined.

The chart describes the lifecycle stages of steel structures. Lifecycle assessment excludes the lifecycle stages in a grey bacround. This environmental product declaration covers the lifecycle of the product from cradle to factory gate, i.e. information modules A1, A2, A3, including an endoflife recycling rate of 9% for steel, i.e. the external lifecycle impacts from information module D ( cradle to gate with options ). This means that a burden is allocated for the steel scrap that is used as an input to the steel making process, and a credit for the endoflife (EoL) steel that is recycled. The lifecycle assessment in the environmental production declaration does not include information in the building stage (A4 A5), the use and operational stage (B1 B5; B6 B7) nor the demolition stage (C1 C4). The impact of recycling has been calculated using worldsteel s (World Steel Association) LCA data so that the compensation is the difference between the primary and secondary production of a steel slab perceived with the acquisition of the recycling process of recycled steel is needed to produce 1 of steel in secondary production. Ruukki uses an average of 2% scrap steel in its steel production. The benefits and loads of the scrap steel used by Ruukki are accounted for in module D in accordance with worldsteel s lifecycle model. To avoid double calculation, these are not reported separately as use of secondary material in accordance with standard EN The lifecycle benefits of the byproducts originating in steel production have been allocated to steel production in accordance with worldsteel s lifecycle model so that the benefits are seen in the lifecycle information for Raw material supply (A1). Allocation of byproducts is calculated as reducing environmental impacts in the production of hotrolled steel by 51%, and an average of 8%.

5 Data quality: General requirements and guidelines concerning use of generic and specific data and the quality of those are as described in EN 1584: 212, clause and The data is representative according to temporal, geographical and technological requirements. Temporal: All specific data is based on annual measurement or estimation on production or manufacturing site. The Ruukki and SSAB specific data is from year 212. Generic data used is max. 1 years old. Geographical: Steel production data is based on the Finnish steel factory data from SSAB s factories in Raahe. Construction products manufacturing data is based on the data from the Ruukki factories in Ylivieska and Peräseinäjoki in Finland. The Finnish construction products manufacturing data is estimated to equal Ruukki s other production and manufacturing conditions so that EPDs cover Ruukki s production sites also in Gargzdai in Lithuania and Oborniki in Poland. The structural steel EPD covers all the manufacturing sites that have production primarily to Nordic countries. Upstream data and electricity mix from the databases is GaBi database 6.16 origin eg. Electricity mix is representating average Power grid mix 21 in Sweden for production in Finland. The electricity grid mix SSAB Finnish production and manufacturing uses is Nordic, but it is not available in the database used. The Finnish grid mix in Worldsteel GaBi model does not represent the present combination of neither the Finnish grid mix nor the Nordic grid mix. The option closest to the combination used is Swedish. Technological: Data represent the technology in use. SSAB and Ruukki uses the best available technology in all production and manufacturing sites. SSAB and Ruukki holds valid environmental permits in all units. Allocation: The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN Incoming energy and water and waste production inhouse is allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. Effects of primary production of recycled materials allocated to the main product in which the material was used. The recycling process and transportation of the material is allocated to this analysis. Cutoff criteria: All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included. The production process for raw materials and energy flows that are included with very small amounts (<1%) are not included. This cutoff rule does not apply for hazardous materials and substances. LCA: Scenarios and additional technical information The following information describe the scenarios in the different modules of the EPD.
