Generate a carbon estimate with Carbon Accounting
Autodesk Preconstruction includes carbon accounting tools that allow estimators and sustainability professionals to evaluate the environmental impact of their material choices during the preconstruction phase. In this video, you’ll learn how to activate carbon accounting, assign carbon factors to materials, and generate a carbon estimate from your quantity takeoff. This enables teams to consider both cost and embodied carbon in early project decisions.
After completing this video, you’ll be able to:
- Enable carbon accounting.
- Assign carbon factors to quantities in the inventory.
- Review and export carbon estimates for sustainability analysis.
