Lunch & Learn – Embodied Carbon as a Performance Metric

Center for Architecture and Design 14 E Peace Street, Raleigh

The goal of the WBLCA is to reduce the embodied impacts of a building by quantifying the environmental impacts of structure and enclosure. This course provides an overview of embodied carbon, the role that structural engineers play in the sustainable design process, how design teams can measure and minimize carbon impacts in building systems, and an understanding of how sustainable structural design integrates with other building systems to reduce overall impact. We will also review Whole Building Life Cycle Assessment and LEED v4 through a recent case study.
