关 键 词：component carbon footprint calculator embodied carbon construction
摘 要：This project aims to calculate carbon emission level for construction activity in Malaysia by developing a carbon footprint calculator to determine the amount of carbon emission per square feet of a building in unit of tonne. The carbon emission level can be reduced through better selection and combination of construction materials. The case-based reasoning functionality embedded in the system provides user options to review past similar projects and reuse the solution for the new project to be constructed.
