  • Prioritize recycled content, efficient sections, and procurement-specific EPD comparisons.
  • Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions.
  • Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps.
  • Review masonry extent, reuse opportunities, and alternate assemblies where the design language allows it.
  • Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions.
