Synopsis

"Written for architects, engineers, contractors, owners, and educators, Carbon Positive Building Design and Construction: A Practical Guide for Reducing Building Impact on Carbon Emissions charts out the urgent changes to practice and education in the face of climate change. With Environment and Sustainability Goals (ESG) becoming mainstream, this book addresses how innovative individuals and firms are using new tools and technologies to take action and reduce the cost of carbon-positive built environment. It seeks to address and close gaps in our collective knowledge, by explaining to AEC professionals how to acquire skills and use data to drive informed design decisions to save the planet. This timely guide documents how carbon positive design and construction can be achieved with the rapid deployment of technology and workflows in BIM, computational design, and coordination. This is a book of adaptable strategies that AEC firms can apply today to reinvent project delivery and measure results in construction and operations. Carbon Positive Building Design and Construction: A Practical Guide for Reducing Building Impact on Carbon Emissions was written to help practitioners, students, educators, and project teams make better use of technology to rapidly change the built environment."--
