During the session Chris will:

  • Explain the difference between embodied and operational carbon,
  • Examine how embodied carbon is measured and calculated and how materials can be carbon banks.
  • Review two case studies (2,000sf house and a 10,000sf MURB), and
  • Look at how materials, energy efficiency and fuel source measure up in the total carbon footprint of a building and how this can help to steer design and construction decisions.
