One important aspect of the effects of construction on the environment is the understanding of the sources of carbon emissions during construction; how these are calculated and where in the lifetime of the building they originate from. The industry must consider the impacts that occur pre and post build after the construction phase has been completed. This presentation will help attendees understand the foundations regarding embodied carbon analysis and an introduction to life cycle thinking; what the Jersey Planning Process requires in term of carbon analysis and the challenges faced in ensuring accurate calculations.
NAWIC is an international not-for-profit association dedicated to the advancement of women in the construction industry.
Our aim is to support women in construction through their careers, to celebrate and platform their accomplishments, to make a lasting positive impact on the construction industry, and to inspire the next generation of women into construction related roles.
We organise site visits, networking events, socials, topical industry seminars, workshops for personal development, business know-how and more, all of which provide opportunities for our members and allies to meet other construction professionals in a formalised yet relaxed and friendly environment.
