Abstract: A novel method for determining embodied environmental impact in a building design from a CAD model is disclosed. The method associates CAD model elements with data related to CAD modeling practice and material constants. The method recognizes and accounts for the fact that models alone rarely contain sufficient levels of detail to calculate material-based results such as embodied environmental impact or carbon content.
