Tools for Building Life-Cycle Assessment (Part B )
Building design professionals are invited to join Part B of this course to expand on the concepts and tools introduced in Part A.
Through in-tool demonstration, participants will learn advanced features of the LCA tool, Tally, and the specification and procurement tool, EC3. Participants will learn how to interpret LCA results and use the output to meet LEED credit requirements. During this session, participants will learn how these tools can inform design decisions and project specifications to achieve a reduction in the embodied carbon of their buildings. Participants will also be introduced to carbon baselines and benchmarks, and how they may be used in the design process.
Learning Objectives:
– Learn to evaluate the environmental impact of building materials through the use of life-cycle assessment (LCA)
– Learn to interpret and communicate results from an LCA
– Learn to utilize industry tools to evaluate the environmental impact of a building
– Learn to conduct an LCA that meets the Whole-Building Life-Cycle Assessment requirements of LEED v4 and v4.1″
