1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR covers physically constructed, accepted non-residential buildings for public entertainment, accommodation and restaurants, education/libraries/archives/museums, healthcare including veterinary care, indoor sport/recreation, conventions, religious use, prisons, law courts/parliament, communications and residual non-residential farm uses, consistent with the occupancy boundary in un-cpc-3-53129. It covers the entire declared delivered entity rather than only one easier school or hospital route. Construction services, supplied material packages, commercial office/retail/warehouse/transport-terminal buildings, industrial factories, agricultural storage buildings/silos, residential/community residences, mines, power/chemical plants, other specialized industrial facilities and outdoor sport installations are excluded. Physical farm shelters other than industrial/storage facilities remain eligible according to documented predominant use. Mixed-use sites require a declared building and shared-system scope; a classification label alone proves no methodology applicability.

Actual designs may use reinforced/cast-in-place or precast concrete, steel, timber, masonry or combined construction. Each applies through evidenced project work packages. Fixed services and fit-out must reflect the real delivered function: e.g. air/pressure/cleanliness systems in healthcare, teaching/laboratory spaces, hotel sanitation, kitchen exhaust, auditorium acoustics and long-span indoor sport roofs, secure institutional installations or communications infrastructure when actually delivered. These are applicability prompts, not mandatory generic equipment recipes or design thresholds. Owner business equipment, movable furniture, medical machines, broadcast/IT equipment and later occupant fit-out are separately disclosed exclusions unless the declared entity includes them with distinct inventories.

The unit item is the count abbreviation of public Item(s), not kg, m2 or m3. Areas and capacities characterize function/configuration; they do not silently rescale the reference entity. Shell-only or phased delivery must disclose its incompleteness and cannot be compared as a fully fitted delivered building.

Off-site material/equipment manufacture is upstream, not automatically site foreground. This alone is neither complete cradle-to-gate nor whole-life LCA.rics-wlca-2024
actual_routeall inventory rowsFlow cards are atomic applicability seeds, not a fixed bill. Include every actual used component, coating, joint, chemical, fuel, packaging and waste in separate rows using the same reference, collection and evidence rules.

Direct released constituents, air species and receiving compartments require actual evidence; noise/vibration and land effects must be assessed with activity, location and duration records, and unavailable exchange identities/characterization disclosed rather than invented universal emissions.epa-concrete-washout-2012; epa-construction-dust-2010
transport_splitdatasetKeep manufacture, actual inbound transport, site movement, waste export and treatment as identified modules; retain route distance, payload and empty trips from cp_transport. Add mode-specific atomic freight services using matched providers. Fuel embodied in a transport service must not be duplicated as site fuel; no default distance.rics-wlca-2024

7. Allocation and Co-product Handling

rule_idapplies_torulesource_ids
shared_sitedatasetSubdivide work packages and directly meter/trace attributable material, energy and waste first. If unavoidable, document the physical causal driver for each shared activity (machine hours, supplied quantities or actual service demand). Area alone is not an automatic driver for unlike hospital, theatre or hotel systems. Unproven relationships stay under review; economic allocation needs justification and sensitivity.ghg-allocation-2011
asset_conservationtemporaryKeep an asset-specific cumulative ledger across projects, periods and reuse. Use project activity divided by an evidence-backed compatible total service/activity basis to allocate manufacturing burden; the cumulative attributed shares cannot exceed one. Retain unused share and supported lifetime/activity estimates; unknown total basis remains review. Do not copy RICS illustrative reuse counts/lifetimes or reset a full manufacturing burden at each site.rics-wlca-2024
waste_recoverywasteA waste export is not a coproduct credit. Document separation, receiver, treatment and whether a traded recovered product actually exists. Keep recycling assumptions and beyond-boundary substitution separate; no automatic avoided-primary credit or double accounting of supplied recycled material.ghg-allocation-2011

Direct released constituents, air species and receiving compartments require actual evidence; noise/vibration and land effects must be assessed with activity, location and duration records, and unavailable exchange identities/characterization disclosed rather than invented universal emissions.epa-concrete-washout-2012, epa-construction-dust-2010
transport_splitdatasetKeep manufacture, actual inbound transport, site movement, waste export and treatment as identified modules; retain route distance, payload and empty trips from cp_transport. Add mode-specific atomic freight services using matched providers. Fuel embodied in a transport service must not be duplicated as site fuel; no default distance.rics-wlca-2024
Allocation rules · 3
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
shared_sitedatasetSubdivide work packages and directly meter/trace attributable material, energy and waste first. If unavoidable, document the physical causal driver for each shared activity (machine hours, supplied quantities or actual service demand). Area alone is not an automatic driver for unlike hospital, theatre or hotel systems. Unproven relationships stay under review; economic allocation needs justification and sensitivity.ghg-allocation-2011
asset_conservationtemporaryKeep an asset-specific cumulative ledger across projects, periods and reuse. Use project activity divided by an evidence-backed compatible total service/activity basis to allocate manufacturing burden; the cumulative attributed shares cannot exceed one. Retain unused share and supported lifetime/activity estimates; unknown total basis remains review. Do not copy RICS illustrative reuse counts/lifetimes or reset a full manufacturing burden at each site.rics-wlca-2024
waste_recoverywasteA waste export is not a coproduct credit. Document separation, receiver, treatment and whether a traded recovered product actually exists. Keep recycling assumptions and beyond-boundary substitution separate; no automatic avoided-primary credit or double accounting of supplied recycled material.ghg-allocation-2011
Validation rules · 4
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
entity_gatereference_buildingReject missing entity configuration, measured geometry, named area convention, documented function/capacity, handover status/dates or scope exclusions; compare only equivalent delivered functions and stage scopes.un-cpc-3-53129
inventory_gateall inventory rowsCheck atomic identities, public Chinese names, direction/type, actual reference properties/units, route conditions and duplicate assembly components; unconfirmed UUID remains explicit, never implies absent burden.jrc-levels-boq-2021
records_gatedatasetEvery actual exchange needs traceable collection and same-reference aggregation, actual geometry/conversion evidence and stage completeness. Unknown emission speciation, asset allocation basis or upstream/treatment link remains inconclusive for affected claims; no assumed zero.rics-wlca-2024, ghg-allocation-2011
handover_gatehandoverCheck actual commissioning/retest records against project requirements and delivered systems. Absence of a required installed system cannot be hidden by another occupancy route; construction-to-handover check does not validate future service life or operational performance.gsa-commissioning-2020
