1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR concerns the completed physical residential building containing one or two dwellings, at its actual site and declared handover condition. It covers detached, attached and duplex forms, including masonry, timber, reinforced-concrete, steel and mixed structural routes when actually used; no route is a mandatory recipe. The product is the delivered building rather than a construction service, design, monetary asset or bundle of materials. Every dataset must identify the entire building, its dwelling count, actual geometry and included fixed works. Shell-only delivery may be identified but cannot be described as a fully fitted habitable building.

Construction foreground begins with supplied construction products and the recorded initial site condition, and ends at signed physical acceptance after construction/testing. Upstream manufacture is linked separately using compatible product datasets; its coverage is disclosed. Maintenance, replacement, operation, final demolition and recovery are distinct later stages and excluded from this delivery dataset. No whole-life or complete cradle-to-gate claim follows from a site inventory.

WhatProvide the physically delivered residential building for its specified dwelling use
How muchOne complete building; declare one or two dwellings, surveyed gross internal floor area, usable dwelling area, footprint, storeys and dimensions
How wellAs-built structure, envelope, installed systems, acceptance condition, required capacity and local use/performance specification; record checks rather than infer legal approval
How long or cycleOne construction-and-handover cycle; no default service life. Any later service-period comparison requires separately justified duration and use/maintenance scenarios

The display unit item denotes the public Number of items unit Item(s); 1 item is one whole building, not one dwelling, one square metre or one tonne. The reference product UUID remains unresolved: the available named building identity uses Mass, with no verified building-specific mass-to-count relationship. Metadata must declare every required qualifier; missing information invalidates applicability. Actual areas are mandatory descriptors, not a universal equivalent housing function.

7. Allocation and Co-product Handling

rule_idapplies_torulesource_ids
attributionshared site activitiesUse dedicated project metering and work-package subdivision first. If works serve multiple buildings, document measured machine time, material issue or another causal driver, the full receiving population and idle load under cp_joint. Area or price share is not a default physical relation.ghg-allocation-2011
actual_coproductexported useful outputsSeparate sold products, reused soil and wastes by actual status and destination. Avoid allocation by subdivision; remaining co-products require justified physical relations, or documented alternative allocation and sensitivity when physical relations cannot be established. No automatic avoided-material credit is assigned.ghg-allocation-2011
temporary_reusetemporary worksRetain construction burdens and rejected/reworked materials for this accepted building. Record temporary-panel equipment sharing from actual deployment and reuse logs with future reuse uncertainty; do not invent lifetime or reuse count. Report waste treatment and recovery beyond this gate separately.rics-wlca-2024
asset_share_conservationreusable formwork, components and equipmentMaintain one asset-level manufacturing-burden ledger across all projects and periods. A measured project use-time or deployment is only the numerator; the denominator must represent evidenced total lifetime service or a justified forecast with sensitivity and later reconciliation. Cumulative manufacturing shares across all projects and periods must not exceed one. An observation-period allocation may distribute only the manufacturing share already attributable to that period; never reintroduce the whole asset manufacture at each period. Unknown lifetime/service denominators remain unresolved review, not a default. Include asset manufacture when material; a hire invoice alone does not establish lifecycle coverage.ghg-allocation-2011; rics-wlca-2024

System boundary rules · 3
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
boundary_deliveryall inventory rowsInclude the actual foundation, structure, enclosure, specified fixed installations, construction/testing utilities and wastes up to acceptance. Process headings partition activities, not partial products. Enumerate each additional installed product and actually occurring exchange as its own row; listed route alternatives are not interchangeable placeholders.jrc-levels-boq-2021, rics-wlca-2024
boundary_stagesdatasetKeep material manufacture, inbound transport, site installation, maintenance/replacement, operation, final demolition and waste destinations separately identifiable. A4 and A5 foreground does not establish full A1–A5 or whole-life coverage. Actual initial demolition/clearance and its waste must be inventoried separately when present.rics-wlca-2024
boundary_double_countsite_utilitiesReport purchased utility inputs and direct site emissions separately. Onsite diesel combustion is added only if the chosen background fuel dataset ends before combustion; no duplicated upstream emissions. Abstracted resources, dewatering transfers, returned water and exported liquid wastes have distinct routing.rics-wlca-2024, epa-concrete-washout-2012
Allocation rules · 4
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
attributionshared site activitiesUse dedicated project metering and work-package subdivision first. If works serve multiple buildings, document measured machine time, material issue or another causal driver, the full receiving population and idle load under cp_joint. Area or price share is not a default physical relation.ghg-allocation-2011
actual_coproductexported useful outputsSeparate sold products, reused soil and wastes by actual status and destination. Avoid allocation by subdivision; remaining co-products require justified physical relations, or documented alternative allocation and sensitivity when physical relations cannot be established. No automatic avoided-material credit is assigned.ghg-allocation-2011
temporary_reusetemporary worksRetain construction burdens and rejected/reworked materials for this accepted building. Record temporary-panel equipment sharing from actual deployment and reuse logs with future reuse uncertainty; do not invent lifetime or reuse count. Report waste treatment and recovery beyond this gate separately.rics-wlca-2024
asset_share_conservationreusable formwork, components and equipmentMaintain one asset-level manufacturing-burden ledger across all projects and periods. A measured project use-time or deployment is only the numerator; the denominator must represent evidenced total lifetime service or a justified forecast with sensitivity and later reconciliation. Cumulative manufacturing shares across all projects and periods must not exceed one. An observation-period allocation may distribute only the manufacturing share already attributable to that period; never reintroduce the whole asset manufacture at each period. Unknown lifetime/service denominators remain unresolved review, not a default. Include asset manufacture when material; a hire invoice alone does not establish lifecycle coverage.ghg-allocation-2011, rics-wlca-2024
Validation rules · 4
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
validate_scopedatasetReject dwelling count outside one or two, missing site/geometry/delivery condition, material-bundle substitution or construction-service reference. Require whole-building acceptance and every required qualifier.un-cpc-3-53111
validate_inventoryall inventory rowsCheck one physical or chemical identity per exchange, row-specific unit, route applicability, project denominator, every linked protocol and bilateral consistency. Sum stage utilities/wastes to actual records; unresolved identities are gaps rather than permission to select a near name.
validate_stage_claimdatasetVerify A1–A3 data links, A4 transport and A5 actual work before claiming their coverage. Omitted use, replacement, demolition and recovery forbid full-lifetime claims; later scenarios require new source-supported durations and routes. Do not imply scientific or regulatory approval from acceptance of a PCR projection.rics-wlca-2024
validate_environmentsite_utilitiesRequire a documented direct-release basis and no overlap with combustion/waste-treatment background datasets. Check NO speciation, PM fractions, fossil carbon and water routing; unresolved required measurements prevent a complete dataset claim.epa-construction-dust-2010, epa-concrete-washout-2012
