Carbon signals

library gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet.

No dominant drivers yet.

Aluminum, Concrete, and Steel look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette.

  • Aluminum
  • Concrete
  • Steel
Lower-carbon levers

No levers surfaced yet.

  • Focus on recycled content, lighter assemblies, and careful facade-specification choices.
  • Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps.
  • Prioritize recycled content, efficient sections, and procurement-specific EPD comparisons.
  • Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely.
