1. Scope and Applicability
This PCR covers the actually constructed and accepted building entity used for industrial production/assembly (factories, plants, workshops) and agricultural buildings including silos and storage facilities. A delivered site-specific entity, including its declared foundations, frame/shell, industrial floor where applicable, enclosure and fixed building services, is the reference product. Steel portal, reinforced/precast concrete, masonry, timber and agricultural storage routes remain within scope when evidenced by the actual project. A steel example does not redefine the class.
Exclude mining facilities, power plants, chemical/related facilities and specialized manufacturing facilities such as iron foundries (CPC 53261/53262/53269); exclude residential/commercial buildings outside the category, upstream construction products sold alone, construction services and production machinery. Integrated office/ancillary space within the accepted building is included and disclosed. Standalone machinery, conveyors, grain drying/aeration process equipment and process-crane equipment are outside the building product unless a separately justified integrated scope is declared; structural supports actually part of the building remain included. Construction to handover is the foreground boundary; the delivered entity is not a claim of full lifetime performance.
2. Product Category Identity
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| canonical_pcr_id | pcr.constructions-and-construction-services.constructions.industrial-and-agricultural-building-delivery |
| classification_refs | CPC 3.0 53121 — Industrial buildings |
| covered_products | Accepted industrial-production/assembly buildings and agricultural buildings including storage silos, with project-specific complete delivery scope |
| excluded_products | CPC excluded specialized facilities; building-service contracts; material kits; production equipment; other occupancy classes |
| representative_product | One accepted factory/workshop building or one accepted agricultural building/silo of an explicitly surveyed configuration |
| production_route | Actual site preparation, foundations, load-bearing erection or shell assembly, enclosure, fixed services, commissioning and handover; route-specific atomic rows |
| market_state | Completed on its declared site and signed over in the specified construction/fit-out condition, without an assumed production operation period |
3. Reference Flow
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| What | Deliver the building enclosure/structure and declared fixed services for the documented industrial or agricultural function |
| How much | One complete accepted entity; report surveyed gross/internal/useful areas with explicit definitions, number of levels, clear height and actual dimensions; for silo declare usable storage volume/capacity and contents basis without default bulk density |
| How well | As-built structural system, actual design/performance records, enclosure, industrial floor requirements and installed service/acceptance scope; no generic design loads or compliance approval |
| How long or cycle | One actual construction-to-handover event with start/end dates; operational service life is outside this reference and must be source-supported in later scenarios |
| reference_flow_link | reference_building |
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reference amount | 1 |
| Reference product flow | Completed industrial or agricultural building |
| Reference flow property | Number of items 01846770-4cfe-4a25-8ad9-919d8d378345 |
| Reference unit group | Units of items 5beb6eed-33a9-47b8-9ede-1dfe8f679159 |
| Reference unit | item |
| Required qualifiers | entity/site id; industrial/agricultural function and exclusions; delivery date/state; full installed scope; actual area definition and geometry; clear height; structural system; floor/performance evidence; actual silo contents and capacity basis if applicable; route; upstream gates; unmeasured/excluded stages |
The unit item is a display alias for public Item(s), not kg or m2. The reference output and every inventory/protocol denominator are the same declared whole entity. Required qualifiers must be present in the foreground package. Do not convert buildings to mass, area or annual service using assumed averages; comparisons require matched actual function, size, performance and scope.
4. Measurement and Unit Rules
| rule_id | Applies to | Required property | Required unit | Rule |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| reference_count | reference product | Number of items 01846770-4cfe-4a25-8ad9-919d8d378345 | item | One accepted complete entity with cp_acceptance. Keep the same declared reference flow for all records. No numeric mass M is imposed. |
| actual_geometry | reference product | Area 93a60a56-a3c8-19da-a746-0800200c9a66 | m2 | Survey areas with stated measurement convention and as-built dimensions; retain silo usable volume in m3 separately. Geometry describes function/configuration and is not an automatic output conversion. |
| energy_identity | lv_electricity; mv_electricity; diesel | Net calorific value 93a60a56-a3c8-11da-a746-0800200c9a66 | MJ | Preserve public net calorific value reference and energy group. Electricity kWh uses 3.6 MJ/kWh; diesel kg to MJ needs actual LHV and litres to kg actual density at declared state. Retain raw records and uncertainty. |
| transport_basis | road_freight | Goods transport (mass*distance) 838aaa20-0117-11db-92e3-0800200c9a66 | t*km | Retain actual cargo mass and each route distance in cp_transport; documented tonne-kilometres are an input service numerator per the same entity. |
5. System Boundary
Boundary Abstraction
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| declared_starting_condition | Actual documented site condition plus supplied construction products/equipment at explicitly named supplier or site gates before installation |
| starting_condition_role | foreground_starting_point |
| product_classification_scope | Industrial/agricultural delivered building entity within the stated inclusions/exclusions |
| recursive_input_rule | A reused same-category building or shell is recorded once at its actual received state/gate; expose residual inherited burdens and refurbishment work, do not recursively recreate its full construction inventory |
| upstream_dataset_requirement | Compatible A1–A3 material/component manufacture and actual A4 delivery links must be supplied separately and checked for included transport/site processes; missing links preclude complete cradle-to-handover claim |
| disclosure | Site preparation and pre-existing demolition; product/manufacture gates; construction phases and temporary works; actual transport, fixed services, commissioning; later use, maintenance/replacement, final demolition, treatment and module D excluded |
| rule_id | applies_to | rule | source_ids |
|---|---|---|---|
| construction_gate | dataset | Collect each actual foreground work package through accepted handover; the inventory is construction-focused, not automatically complete cradle-to-gate. Upstream products carry their own manufacturing burden rather than copied manufacture into site work. | rics-wlca-2024 |
| route_completeness | all inventory rows | Process and flow examples are conditional, not a universal bill. Add every actually used atomic cement, aggregate, additive, panel, joint/grout, fixing, membrane, service component and waste for the real design. Do not drop industrial/agricultural routes because their identities are unresolved. | jrc-levels-boq-2021; un-cpc-3-53121 |
| environment_gate | utilities; waste | Distinguish supplied water, direct resource intake, dewatering, contained washwater, treated discharge and each measured emission constituent. Construction noise/vibration/land and unmeasured constituents require explicit assessment/disclosure, not invented mandatory exchanges. Direct combustion and generator supply must not double count. | epa-concrete-washout-2012; epa-construction-dust-2010 |
6. Process Inventory Structure
Process Map
| process_id | process_name | inclusion | inclusion_condition | role | quantitative_reference |

| frame | Load-bearing frame and masonry erection | conditional | Actual steel, precast, timber or masonry route with separate row applicability; cranes/MEWPs and temporary bracing, bolting or welding, alignment and inspection | foreground | per declared reference flow |
| envelope | Roof, wall enclosure and industrial openings | conditional | Actual covered building: cladding, insulation, roof drainage and doors as delivered; open agricultural structures disclose absent enclosure | foreground | per declared reference flow |
| silo | Agricultural storage-silo assembly | conditional | Actual agricultural silo: foundation interface, shell/roof, anchors, seals and access; steel example is not universal for concrete silos | foreground | per declared reference flow |
| services | Industrial floor finishes and fixed building services | conditional | Only actually delivered fixed lighting, power distribution, drainage, ventilation and fire protection; integral offices included within declared building; process machinery excluded | foreground | per declared reference flow |
| utilities | Site equipment operation and temporary facilities | required | Actual construction utilities and measured releases across all work packages; stages and equipment retained | foreground | per declared reference flow |
| waste | Construction waste collection and export | conditional | Every occurring waste segregated by material and state, with actual destination; add atomic exchanges not represented by examples | foreground | per declared reference flow |
| transport | Deliveries and exported waste transport | conditional | Actual transport legs not already in linked datasets; preserve different gates and modes | foreground | per declared reference flow |
| handover | Inspection, commissioning and accepted handover | required | Whole delivered entity with documented geometry, structural/enclosure/services scope and signed acceptance; test exchanges retained | reference_product | per declared reference flow |

7. Allocation and Co-product Handling
| rule_id | applies_to | rule | source_ids |
|---|---|---|---|
| avoid_allocation | all inventory rows | Separate directly attributable records by building, stage and contractor first. For genuinely shared site utilities use measured causal activity, time or another justified physical driver; retain denominator, covered projects and uncertainty. Economic allocation needs explicit review when no physical relation can be evidenced. | ghg-allocation-2011 |
| asset_conservation | utilities; concrete; frame | Equipment manufacture, scaffolds, bracing and reusable formwork are charged only by the justified share in cp_asset. Across all projects, periods and reuses cumulative manufacture-burden shares must not exceed one; retain residual and reconcile forecast service. Unknown lifetime/cumulative service requires review and disclosure; no full manufacture reset for each building. | rics-wlca-2024 |
| waste_no_credit | waste | Keep actual exported waste and treatment/recovery burdens distinct from the accepted building output. Do not credit future avoided steel/concrete production by default; reuse/recycling substitutions require separately evidenced routes and consistent boundary without duplicate credit. | rics-wlca-2024 |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| project_reconciliation | all inventory rows | Retain actual attributable totals in each row unit per declared reference flow. Reconcile receipts, returns, stock changes, installed quantities and exported waste by physical identity. Internal recirculation is not a new external input. No default recipe, loss factor, mass per building or service life. | cp_ground; cp_concrete; cp_frame; cp_envelope; cp_silo; cp_services; cp_utilities; cp_waste; cp_acceptance | Actual exchange totals per declared reference flow | jrc-levels-boq-2021 |
| unit_preservation | diesel; lv_electricity; mv_electricity; road_freight | Apply energy_identity and transport_basis only to input numerator units while preserving the declared reference flow. Keep measured density/LHV and actual transport legs with the dataset; geometry is reported as configuration, not an unproved output conversion. | cp_utilities; cp_transport | MJ or t*km per declared reference flow |
Data Quality Requirements
| requirement_id | Applies to | Requirement | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| complete_entity | dataset | Acceptance scope, function, actual geometry, structural system, industrial floor and fixed service schedule must agree; assess agricultural storage-specific shell/capacity requirements. All absent/missing work packages are explicit; example rows do not prove complete inventory. | cp_acceptance; cp_silo |
| measurement | all inventory rows | Original readings, tickets and subcontractor records cover the whole project and actual states. Report uncertainty and estimates separately; missing measurements never become zero. | all collection protocols |
| identity | all inventory rows | Verify public identity, main reference property, unit group, route, geography and official bilingual flow display; mass/volume/energy are distinct. Blank identities retain exact rows and block unsupported linkage. | supplier/state records; identity evidence |
| environment | utilities; waste | Document actual fossil/biogenic share, CAS, medium/submedium, immediate/long-term and particle fraction. Assess actual noise, land use, dewatering and washwater/discharge routes; disclose unmeasured coverage and add specific measured exchanges when required. | cp_environment; cp_waste |
9. Validation Rules
| rule_id | applies_to | rule | source_ids |
|---|---|---|---|
| validate_scope | dataset | Require a whole accepted industrial/agricultural building or silo within the official exclusions, actual site/function/geometry and delivery state. Reject substitution by a building service, material bundle or specialized excluded facility. | un-cpc-3-53121 |
| validate_basis | all inventory rows | Reference table, reference_building output and every row/protocol denominator must agree with one declared entity. Check physically compatible numerator property/unit and supported measured conversions; no false kg building mass or assumed capacity relation. | |
| validate_complete | dataset | Check every actually occurring material, process, temporary work, utility, waste and release, including contractor work and commissioning. Missing identities, quantities or stages are declared gaps, not zero; no full cradle-to-gate/full-lifetime claim with missing upstream or later stages. | rics-wlca-2024 |
| validate_asset | utilities; concrete; frame | Reconcile shared-equipment/formwork manufacture shares across all projects and periods, cumulative total at most one; review unknown service denominator and ensure direct operation is not charged twice. | ghg-allocation-2011 |
| validate_environment | utilities; waste | Require quantified evidence and compatible CAS, source, medium and submedium; distinguish NO and NO2 and retain waste-vs-discharge routing. Never claim methodology or legal approval from a projection/check result. | epa-concrete-washout-2012; epa-construction-dust-2010 |

System boundary rules · 3
| Rule ID | Applies to | Rule | Source IDs |
|---|---|---|---|
construction_gate | dataset | Collect each actual foreground work package through accepted handover; the inventory is construction-focused, not automatically complete cradle-to-gate. Upstream products carry their own manufacturing burden rather than copied manufacture into site work. | rics-wlca-2024 |
route_completeness | all inventory rows | Process and flow examples are conditional, not a universal bill. Add every actually used atomic cement, aggregate, additive, panel, joint/grout, fixing, membrane, service component and waste for the real design. Do not drop industrial/agricultural routes because their identities are unresolved. | jrc-levels-boq-2021, un-cpc-3-53121 |
environment_gate | utilities; waste | Distinguish supplied water, direct resource intake, dewatering, contained washwater, treated discharge and each measured emission constituent. Construction noise/vibration/land and unmeasured constituents require explicit assessment/disclosure, not invented mandatory exchanges. Direct combustion and generator supply must not double count. | epa-concrete-washout-2012, epa-construction-dust-2010 |
Allocation rules · 3
| Rule ID | Applies to | Rule | Source IDs |
|---|---|---|---|
avoid_allocation | all inventory rows | Separate directly attributable records by building, stage and contractor first. For genuinely shared site utilities use measured causal activity, time or another justified physical driver; retain denominator, covered projects and uncertainty. Economic allocation needs explicit review when no physical relation can be evidenced. | ghg-allocation-2011 |
asset_conservation | utilities; concrete; frame | Equipment manufacture, scaffolds, bracing and reusable formwork are charged only by the justified share in cp_asset. Across all projects, periods and reuses cumulative manufacture-burden shares must not exceed one; retain residual and reconcile forecast service. Unknown lifetime/cumulative service requires review and disclosure; no full manufacture reset for each building. | rics-wlca-2024 |
waste_no_credit | waste | Keep actual exported waste and treatment/recovery burdens distinct from the accepted building output. Do not credit future avoided steel/concrete production by default; reuse/recycling substitutions require separately evidenced routes and consistent boundary without duplicate credit. | rics-wlca-2024 |
Validation rules · 5
| Rule ID | Applies to | Rule | Source IDs |
|---|---|---|---|
validate_scope | dataset | Require a whole accepted industrial/agricultural building or silo within the official exclusions, actual site/function/geometry and delivery state. Reject substitution by a building service, material bundle or specialized excluded facility. | un-cpc-3-53121 |
validate_basis | all inventory rows | Reference table, reference_building output and every row/protocol denominator must agree with one declared entity. Check physically compatible numerator property/unit and supported measured conversions; no false kg building mass or assumed capacity relation. | |
validate_complete | dataset | Check every actually occurring material, process, temporary work, utility, waste and release, including contractor work and commissioning. Missing identities, quantities or stages are declared gaps, not zero; no full cradle-to-gate/full-lifetime claim with missing upstream or later stages. | rics-wlca-2024 |
validate_asset | utilities; concrete; frame | Reconcile shared-equipment/formwork manufacture shares across all projects and periods, cumulative total at most one; review unknown service denominator and ensure direct operation is not charged twice. | ghg-allocation-2011 |
validate_environment | utilities; waste | Require quantified evidence and compatible CAS, source, medium and submedium; distinguish NO and NO2 and retain waste-vs-discharge routing. Never claim methodology or legal approval from a projection/check result. | epa-concrete-washout-2012, epa-construction-dust-2010 |
