A new go-to database of Canada’s most popular enclosure assemblies has been launched by Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) and RDH as part of a funded project with The Atmospheric Fund (TAF).
This published data of enclosure assembly material quantities can be used to calculate embodied carbon before drawings exist, encouraging very early-stage design decisions for greater reductions.
