Join us at this webinar to explore and understandmore on the RICS Whole Life CarbonAssessment , and its application in constructionprojects applicable to worldwide

Overview

Developed to provide continuity and reliability, while encouraging long-term thinking through reuse, recycling and redevelopment , the 2nd edition of RICS’ whole life carbon assessement (WLCA) in the built environment marks a revolutionary change in carbon measurements practices . Using the WLCA standard , assessors can estimate the amount of carbon emitted throughout the life cycle of a constructed asset, from the early stages of development though to the end of life. It gives visibility to embodied carbon, operational carbon, and user carbon – something that is vital to carbon calculations and a unique feature of the RICS standard . By giving visibility to the carbon cost of different design choices , the standard aims to help manage carbon budgets , reduce lifetime emissions and deliver a net-zero future for the built environment . The topic covers the following points: - Introduction to the RICS Whole Life Carbon Assessment Standard - Case Sharing
