Embodied carbon assessment for a city centre office

摘要

Acradle-to-grave assessment for carbon dioxide emissions was made for the city centre office block. This considered the embodied carbon of producing the framing material and frame elements, constructing the building and what happens to the material when the building is decommissioned. It excluded carbon emissions related to running the building. Industry data on materials' emissions was supplied from Target Zero publications for steel and from Concrete Centre publications for concrete.
