Certification and Reporting to industry standards

Models, analysis and reporting to the following recognised industry standards:

• BS EN 15978:2011 - Sustainability of construction works

• BS ISO 15686-5 - Standardised Method of Life Cycle Costing

• PAS 2050:2011

• BCIS NRM

Certification and Reporting to industry standards

Models, analysis and reporting to the following recognised industry standards:

• RIBA embodied carbon guidance

• RICS embodied carbon standard

• London Plan 2019 will require life cycle carbon analysis

• Policy 9.2.10.k requires:

•‘a whole life-cycle carbon emissions assessment, and actions to reduce life-cycle carbon emissions (for development proposals referable to the Mayor).’

Lifecycle carbon model

Embodied carbon model

Lifecycle carbon model developed by Architype to support in-house research and analysis of live projects:

• Full lifecycle model

• Carbon storage (sequestration)

• Carbon absorption (e.g. GGBS / Lime)

• Dynamic global transport model

• Customisable reporting & metrics

• Transparent reporting
