CARBON FOOTPRINT ANALYSIS TOOL FOR STRUCTURES

摘要

An emission estimation program configured to calculate the amount of carbon generated during the life span of a structure by displaying a graphical user interface which is configured to gather structural information pertaining of the structure, receiving structural information pertaining to the size, types of material used in the structure and structural aspects of the structure, generating an estimated amount of carbon generated from the use of each type of material to construct the structure and the labor used to construct the structure based on the structural information, the types, and amounts of material and labor required to repair the structure after a destructive event occurs based on a calculated probability and magnitude of a destructive event occurring, generating and displaying an estimated amount of carbon emitted as a result of the materials used and the labor required to repair the structure after the destructive event occurs.
