Abstract
Abstract: Building construction can result in carbon emissions that have a substantial negative influence on the environment. Studies show that 40% of global Co2 emissions each year are caused by the built environment and Cement is a widely utilized building ingredient in the construction industry, an essential part of the concrete mix. Approximately 7 % of the carbon emissions in the world are caused by cement. By substituting low-emission and sustainable building materials for those with higher carbon emissions, the building's carbon emissions can be decreased. Using materials that are long-lasting and have low embodied carbon when are sourced ethically. Reduced carbon emissions from construction materials can be achieved in large part by early decision making in AEC phases. In this paper an assessment of residential building materials impact on environment is carried by using BIM and LCA tools and difference in embodied energy is observed by optimizing the building plan
