An Analysis of Embodied Carbon between Different Types of Residential Buildings in China
Using the method of lifecycle assessment (LCA) and building information model (BIM), this paper compares quantitatively the embodied carbon levels of three typical residential buildings: a five-storied townhouse, a fourteen-storied medium high-rise and a thirty-storied high-rise. This study consequently finds out that, in a specific period (i.e. from cradle to site), the medium high-rise emits the least embodied carbon and therefore is preferable in this respect.
