Thornton Tomasetti launched Beacon, an embodied carbon measurement tool. The tool is an Autodesk Revit plugin that generates a comprehensive data visualization of a project’s embodied carbon by material type, building element and floor levels. It also grades the model’s embodied carbon levels against the Carbon Leadership Forum’s database of models by building type.
