Green Building: Toward a Sustainable Future   The energy efficiency of a building is determined by the energy consumption per square meter of floor area, allowing for comparisons against established benchmarks for common building types. The typical benchmark is the median level of performance of all the buildings in a given category and good practice. […]

In the ever-evolving landscape of architecture and construction, the integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has emerged as a transformative force. This combination not only redefines the way we approach building design but also sets new standards for sustainability. In the forefront of modern architectural practices, BIM and LCA combine

Understanding Life Cycle Assessment Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a powerful tool used to assess the environmental impacts of a product or system throughout its entire life cycle, from raw material extraction to disposal. It provides valuable insights into resource consumption, energy use, emissions, and waste generation associated with different stages of a product’s life.

Introduction: Understanding Building Information Modelling and Life Cycle Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) are two important concepts in the world of construction and architecture. If you’re involved in these industries or just interested in learning more about sustainable building practices, you’ll want to have a solid understanding of both BIM and
