dc.description.abstract | Currently, Uruguay is developing several measures to reduce the environmental impact of human activities and CO2 emissions. In 2015 more than 90% of electricity was produced by renewable sources. Despite this fact, the construction, transport and building sectors are still responsible for more than 60% of CO2 emissions. Reducing building environmental impacts is becoming an increasing challenge. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is recognized as a method that can help to reduce environmental impacts of the building sector. It can be used as an early stage decision-making tool to assess environmental impacts design choices. The present paper developed a method based on LCA which integrates Building Information Modeling (BIM) to assess building envelope alternatives. The method is validated by the application in a single-family house - the most popular typology - in Uruguay, considering three envelope alternatives, including frequent and non-frequent
materials. Results focused on comparing the embodied impacts, transport, and operational energy consumptions of each scenario. The results evidence that the developed method can help during the building design process, especially to define dimension and thickness of materials. | es |
