183 Appendix B: SCP Rating Survey Results

184 How to Read TABLE B1: Each SCP surveyed has four participant inputs:  Effort  Human welfare  Environmental benefit  Cost savings From these the impact-to-effort ratio is calculated as: impact-to-effort-ratio human welfare environmental benefit cost savingseffort Salmon highlighted SCPS were not included in the final SCP list (TABLE ) either combined together because they were similar to another or eliminated because they were too generic, did not meet the definition of a SCP or were too specific of an example of a more generic idea. The list of SCPs that were rated comes from the draft list of SCPs (TABLE), which were further edited to achieve the final SCP list (TABLE ). 

A programmatic approach to sustainable materials procurement in highway construction may be better than one-off attempts. For now, there is little guidance on procuring sustainability in highway construction and sustainability is not as important as cost or schedule.

The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Web-Only Document 262: Sustainable Highway Construction describes the research process and outcomes used to develop NCHRP Research Report 916: Sustainable Highway Construction Guidebook and a presentation that accompanies that Guidebook.

The Web-Only Document is also accompanied by a presentation of the materials.
