Architects and other design professionals have a critical role to play in reducing global greenhouse gas emissions through building design and product selection. The urgent need to reduce both operational and embodied carbon means that building designers must be familiar with transparency documents that facilitate low-carbon product selection. In this course, we review the types of carbon of concern, transparency documents that provide critical information, and tools for sourcing embodied carbon information. We also look at the contribution of insulated metal panels to both low embodied and low operational carbon buildings.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Define operational and embodied carbon and describe methods and tools for the reduction of both.
  • Select EPDs that meet the requirements of the LEED® Materials and Resources credit Environmental Product Declarations and recall the tips for comparing products using EPDs.
  • Recall the types of HPDs, the data they provide, and their applicability to LEED v4.1 rating system credits.
  • Select insulated metal panels that contribute to both operational and embodied carbon reductions.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
