Physics-based Estimates of Structural Material Quantities for Urban-level Embodied Carbon Assessment in Buildings
… targets. The world population growth and rapid urbanization rate add to the urgency of this challenge. In fact, buildings account for about 40% of all energy and carbon emissions from operations and materials’ production and construction processes. More specifically, buildings’ structural …

How Much Does It Really Cost? A Dynamic Approach to Building Retrofit Costs for Decarbonization Pathways
… their part, often without a concrete plan. With buildings accounting for 40% of total global emissions, building retrofits are a key component to these pathways to zero carbon. Urban building energy modeling (UBEM) research efforts have developed physics-based decision-making tools to define …
