Goal 6 | Publish periodic sustainability reports on the repair industry’s efforts and set future goals as needed

Similar to a company’s sustainability report, P+Ex can prepare periodic reports to track the progress that the concrete repair industry has been making.

First, report the base line. Set target improvement and track the achievement. It can also include benefits of service life extension and case studies. Make the document available for the whole industry.

OBJECTIVES

Engage professionals and start collecting data and set the baseline.

Get industry buy-in and provide transparency.

Next steps

Next steps include continuing the series of workshops and increasing the knowledge and understanding of the goals of P+Ex and how absolutely beneficial the extension of structural service life will be for the environment. Outreach to industry organizations is under way. ICRI supports the P+Ex initiative, and meetings with ACI leadership are planned shortly to secure the support of the organization.

P+Ex was created to promote and lead preservation and extension of service life initiatives to contribute to sustainable solutions for society. We plan that this initiative will become a global effort and result in a great reduction in GHG emissions and a deacceleration of global warming.

And, in symbolic support of these efforts, the Statue of Liberty will still be standing on its giant hidden mass of concrete foundation, and the Pantheon will still be keeping out the rain.
