LCAPlay allows users to assess potential environmental impacts for commercial building design concepts. It is useful to inform design direction early on and identify viable low-carbon design pathways and other environmental indicators during the concept phase.
The tool can provide comparative outputs for two different building concept options within one minute of start-up. Having tested design concepts using this tool, users can calculate potential environmental impacts and test options further through preliminary design and beyond using LCAQuick.
