Research and Practice Environmental Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) can be used to evaluate the environmental impacts of a building resulting from manufacturing, construction, operation and maintenance and the end of life demolition and disposal/re-use. Tracking impacts such as greenhouse gas emissions and smog formation, LCA can enable comparison of building proposals testing options of material use, system selection and system performance.
