SRI Values for LITHOCHROME Color Hardener - Standard and Custom Colors
LITHOCHROME Color Hardener may contribute to earning LEED® points under the Sustainable Sites category: 7.1 Heat Island Effect, Non-Roof for New Construction, Existing Building, Schools and Core and Shell by having a Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) of at least 29 or greater as measured by ASTM E903 or ASTM C1549. Learn more.
Below are Solar Reflectance Index ("SRI") values for standard LITHOCHROME Color Hardener Colors.*
SRI values from field installations will differ from those listed due to the materials used, finishing practices such as excessive burnishing, and a variety of other conditions. The color achieved is influenced by local materials. Scofield's Technical Data Sheet requires that a mockup be done under actual jobsite conditions using each color. Prior to beginning the job itself, each SRI should be determined and approved by a commercial laboratory that is equipped to perform SRI testing in accordance with acceptable ASTM standards.
Note: plain gray concrete has an average SRI of 35.

* Note: these values are derived from application at 120 lb/100 sq ft. Use of lower application rates may affect resulting SRI and/or resulting color.
** SRI values are calculated following ASTM E 903 and E 891 (100-point ordinate method), then the E 1980 SRI calculator following R. Levensen of LBNL using a materials emittance of 0.90 and typical ambient meteorological parameters.
