Keplerworks enables users to perform embodied carbon analysis on IFC models efficiently, generating comprehensive reports within minutes for informed decision-making.
Keplerworks is a specialized software platform designed to automate and streamline the assessment of embodied carbon in construction projects. It directly utilizes IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files, the open standard for Building Information Modeling (BIM), to perform comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) calculations. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and complex spreadsheets, enabling design and construction professionals to gain critical environmental insights early in the project lifecycle.
The platform's core functionality centers on automated extraction and analysis of material quantities from IFC models. Keplerworks aligns with key global standards, including EN 15978 and ISO 14040/44, to deliver standardized, auditable carbon footprint reports. A significant advantage is its ability to provide real-time feedback, allowing teams to evaluate the carbon impact of different design choices, materials, and suppliers as the model evolves. This facilitates informed, data-driven decision-making to reduce a building's overall environmental impact.
