NEW Embodied Carbon Calculator to Allow Architects to Generate Super-fast, Accurate Carbon Assessments

Doug Johnson

A New Generation Embodied Carbon Calculator for Real-time Analysis of Building Designs and Powerful Results in Minutes

Mesh has launched a new version of our Embodied Carbon Calculator (V9) to help architects and building designers working at concept stage to generate accurate embodied carbon assessments in minutes. 

This cost-effective tool has a host of features for automated, super-fast report generation:

  • Architects can now input simple area and materials data and see how their designs perform against RIBA 2030 and LETI targets
  • Different design options can be compared and assessed

  • More than 95% accuracy, even at concept stage

  • Calculate relative embodied carbon values for a wide range of materials and building typologies - input up to 10 different construction types for walls, floors, roofs and other building elements

  • Create 'favourite' custom element build-ups to save time across multiple projects

  • Accurate results to inform planning applications, client reporting and RIBA Award submissions.
