If a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was performed for the project, the embodied carbon data can be added in the DDx by selecting Yes on the Embodied Carbon tile. This will open several fields, including the required fields of predicted embodied carbon, carbon modeling tool, time, scope, and LCA stages. The version of the carbon modeling tool may also be entered as an optional field. The scope and LCA stages allow for multiple selections.
Biogenic carbon may also be tracked. Selecting Yes to “Was biogenic carbon included?” will open an optional field for further description, including notes on any assumptions made that you would like to document.
