Application Design of Embodied Energy Calculation for Building Materials in Indonesia

摘要

This paper describe software design of embodied energy (EE) calculation for building materials. Materials' EE is an issue in green building which refers to energy released in building- lifecycle of a material usage. Therefore, EE value becomes very important in measuring how much energy will be consumed and how environment can be damaged, since the planning phase of the building. The materials' EE calculation is called Material Unit Analysis (MUA). It was developed base on Work Unit Price Analysis or AHSP method as a construction material calculation method in Indonesia.
