Expression of Interest For Developing Green Building Materials Database In Egypt

Expression of Interest are invited for Developing Green Building Materials Database in Egypt IFC is seeking to hire an international consulting firm with the expertise in construction sector specifically in Green Buildings Sector to work on delivering a training course to develop Green building materials data base for manufacturers in Egypt. 1. The consulting firm is required to provide capacity building training to the technical team of HBRC to develop guidelines for building materials for manufacturers. These Guidelines will include: · Data required from the manufacturers for the establishment of the Egyptian Green Building Materials Data Base. · Selection of Priority Materials is based upon the commonly used materials in the Egyptian context (e.g., cement, steel, concrete, brick, ceramic, aluminum, and glass). · Environmental indicators to be reported for life cycle assessment are the Embodied Energy based on primary energy and the Global Warming Potential (GWP). Ø The training course compromises the following: 1) Life cycle Inventory data collection process and sheets: · Examples of data sheets per unit process. · Identification of system boundary for the selected building material industries. · Description of the required data to be collected for the calculations including Production routes and technologies for each material. · Description of data collection procedures. · Validation of data including (i) data quality assessment, and ii) treatment of missing data. · Criteria for the inclusion of inputs (energy-water and material) and defining measuring units. · Calculation procedures. · Output data (waste- emissions-material) defining measuring units.
