Earlier this month Build With Strength Director, Building Innovations, Justin McCain met with the sustainability and engineering team at Page in Austin, TX, to present the NRMCA Concrete Carbon Calculator. Page is a full-service, international architecture, engineering and design leader with a strong influence in all major Texas markets. McCain provided information on how to use the NRMCA Industry Wide EPD and Benchmark Report to calculate estimated carbon of concrete through the life cycle of a building.
The available services the BWS team offers the engineering community were also introduced, including specification reviews, life cycle assessments and concrete design assistance. The meeting provided valuable education to the firm and promoted concrete as the building material of choice throughout Texas.
