The RICS has responded to the Government’s Low Carbon Construction Action Plan (published June 2011) by publishing an information paper Methodology to Measure Embodied Carbon of Materials, in a first step to enabling whole-life carbon appraisals on building projects.
The paper responds directly to the call for embodied carbon to be considered at every stage of the construction process as well as during operation. To achieve this, a standard method of measuring embodied carbon was required.
Aimed at quantity surveyors, building surveyors, building control surveyors and project managers, the paper sets out a practical approach by which carbon emissions during the construction of a building can be measured. The methodology has been developed following a successful industry-wide consultation, which saw an unprecedented response from stakeholders and industry bodies. The paper was well received across the industry with many highlighting possible extensions for the future such as including a measurement for sequestration, the carbon captured in wood building materials
