Building Transparency and C Change Labs, for example, have already demonstrated success with the Embodied Carbon in Construction Calculator (EC3)an industry-leading tool for measuring and comparing embodied carbon in construction materials.

Key Points: 
  • Building Transparency and C Change Labs, for example, have already demonstrated success with the Embodied Carbon in Construction Calculator (EC3)an industry-leading tool for measuring and comparing embodied carbon in construction materials.
  • Building Transparency also recently added Tally, a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) app that quantifies and analyzes carbon locked in building materials, to its portfolio.
  • The next generation tallyCAT tool will leverage the capabilities of Tally and EC3 directly within BIM modeling programs like Revit, making carbon reduction an active part of the building process.
  • The tallyCAT team would like to give special thanks to:
