Carbon signals	Concrete, Quartzite, and Water look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette. Concrete Quartzite Water	government building, civic building, tower, and office gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet. No dominant drivers yet.
Lower-carbon levers	Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps. Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely.	No levers surfaced yet.
