Benchmarking of Resource Use and Embodied C02 in Buildings
EPFL Ecublens, SwitzerlandThe increase in frequency of extreme weather events is building up the political pressure and raising the bar for C02 mitigation goals. Buildings are known to contribute over their service life for around 40% of the anthropogenic emissions. Building structure is the single highest contribution to the embodied C02. It is estimated that building design and, particularly, building structural design, have a potential to mitigate 20 - 50% of the embodied C02 of buildings embodied […]
