Case catalogue

The cases are presented on in four pages, each following an identical structure. After a table with key information about the building project, a short description introduces the case with background information on the process and which carbon reduction measures have been adopted. The last three pages contain carbon assessment data in figures and short descriptions according to the overview below.

Overview of the included modules compared to a full life cycle according to EN 15978.

The dark tone indicates that a module is included.

Total Global Warming Potential (GWP) for all included life cycle modules. Note that scenarios for modules might differ from one case to another.

Total GWP divided into operation (B6, B7) and materials (A1-A5, B1-B5, C1-C4).

Total GWP divided into upfront carbon (A1-A5) and future scenarios (B1-B5, C1-C4), while D is shown separately.

GWP of building elements for all material-related impacts (A1-A5, B1-B5, C1-C4) in the project. Ordered by magnitude. Results cover all material impacts.

Black scale: Element quantity per building reference area, meaning weight per building unit.

Blue scale: GWP per element quantity, meaning carbon intensity of one unit of an element relative to its weight.

Results cover all material-related impacts in the project.

Black scale: Product quantity per building reference area, meaning weight per building unit.

Red scale: GWP per building reference area, meaning carbon intensity of products.

Results are limited to 10 products with the highest GWP.
