Wood, plastic and bio-based composites as building materials : are plastic of bio-based composites more beneficial than wood as building material for the barrier on ecoduct Koekendaal concidering sustainability and costs?

Abstract:
In this research an analysis on wood, plastic and bio-based composites is done. All three building materials are compared to each other based on their sustainability and costs. These building materials are the three options for a barrier mounted on to ecoduct Koekendaal, so the advice and conclusion are specified to this project. A Life Cycle Costing and Multi-Criteria Analysis is done to compare the alternatives.
