The use of Artificial Intelligence to evaluate the materials’ Carbon footprint of buildings.”

The global drive towards NetZero is attracting construction companies to focus on reducing carbon emissions and the footprint of buildings and their effect on climate change. One of the key areas for enhancing sustainability is the reduction of embodied carbon in the used materials. This includes the carbon associated with intrinsic features of the materials themselves, the transportation, and installation and maintenance related emissions. To enable the rapid evaluation of the whole-life carbon, i.e. carbon emission during design, construction, operational and end-of-life phase of buildings, this presentation highlights a novel approach of integrating artificial intelligence into existing practices with focus on embodied carbon.
