This session will focus on methods and processes for assessing the whole building life cycle of buildings. Attendees will learn the core concepts of conducting a whole building life cycle assessment and build an awareness of the different tools, data, and resources that can be used throughout the design process.Earn 1 LU|HSW and 1hr ZNCD MCE for attending live, or 1.25hrs ZNCD MCE for watching on-demand Additional Resources Additional Resources Combined Presentation

Unlike operational energy, embodied carbon can’t be reduced over time as these emissions are released into the atmosphere before a building is constructed. Therefore, embodied carbon must be addressed before building and tenant space fit-out construction begins when the materials are selected or purchased. This session will explore some of the key strategies to reduce embodied carbon in construction projects, discuss General Contractors’ role in addressing embodied carbon and consider how embodied carbon affects project work and collaboration across project team members.Earn 1 LU|HSW and 1hr ZNCD MCE for attending live.https://youtu.be/Dc5auY4M3Vc Additional Resources Additional Resources Combined Presentation_EC in Construction and Contractor’s Role
