As Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) become increasingly integrated into the design and delivery of low-carbon buildings, the need for accessible and reliable tools has never been greater. From responding to planning requirements to meeting voluntary certifications or internal sustainability goals, the right resources can streamline the process and advance outcomes.

Today, an expanding ecosystem of tools is available to help architects and project teams quantify and reduce environmental impact. These range from material databases and carbon benchmarks to calculation platforms and best practice guides, each designed to support informed decision-making at every stage of the project.

In this chapter, we’ve curated a selection of key resources that support LCA delivery.
