NEW RELEASE
Embodied Carbon Calculator V9
Now packed with more features and a focus on automated, super-fast and simple report outputs - available exclusively via our new online community, Meshwork.
What is the EC Calculator?
Our Embodied Carbon Calculator V9 gives a valuable insight at the very early stages of the design process allowing you to discover how the embodied carbon of your design is affected by material choice and how your it compares to the RIBA 2030 and LETI carbon alignment targets.
The EC Calculator:
- Allows you to discover and calculate relative embodied carbon values for a wide range of popular building materials and typologies
- Input up to 10 different construction types for wall, floor, roofs and other building elements
- Allows you to create 'favourite' custom element build ups to save you lots of time on different projects
- See exactly where the carbon is in construction elements and through the whole building
- Get real-time feedback on conceptual building designs and powerful results in minutes
- Allows you to check your designs against the RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge or LETI benchmarks
- Is proven to be more than 95% accurate even at the very earliest stages of your design
- Offers you key data for RIBA award entries
New Features in V9:
The latest version allows you more flexibility, tailoring to provide a better overall
accuracy for embodied carbon calculations and very quick results.
You can now:
Input up to 10 different constructions per external element type (50 in total)
Get results in just a few minutes
Save favourite constructions to make analysis for multiple building super-simple
Technical support with your spreadsheet
Quickly get key data for RIBA awards submissions
Have bespoke material input fields
Input volumetric material quantities
Update ‘building services’ choices
Dynamically alter the workspace for improved clarity
As well as. . .
Building key external elements
up in layers
Obtaining automatic indication of Upfront and Embodied Carbon letter rating
Obtaining immediate indications
of U-values
Automatically populating the ‘Carbon Reporting Template’
How to make the most of the EC Calculator
The tool primarily relies on you inputting the key materials, areas and thicknesses for all the key building elements. As you work through the building you add in doors, windows and building services too. Having chosen your building technologies, you instantaneously find out how your building design stacks up and the embodied carbon rating of the design.
