CO2 emissions for concrete bore piling construction

Japan and Malaysia are among the sustainable countries in the world ranking 26 and 51 in the Environmental Performance Index (EPI), accordingly. Recent data obtained from the statistical department shows that both countries GDP contributed by the construction industries amounting 18.6% in Malaysia w...
