Measure 8 ‐ Resources
The major structural material used is Explanations reinforced concrete. To reduce the total embodied carbon, careful and considerate selection of manufacturer and material is taken into consideration. Another way to reduce the embodied carbon is to reduce the total mass that requires concrete. This is achieved by reducing the internal There are a variety of tools for circulation of the building and designing estimating the embodied carbon of anfor bigger windows that creates bigger cut entire building.
