Integrate Life Cycle Assessment with building design.

Join KT Innovations and PE International for Tally Talks, a series of live demonstrations of the Tally™ application for Autodesk ® Revit ® software that makes Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) available to building designers.

Next Up: Achieving Building Life-Cycle Impact Reduction Credits

Join us for an overview of new LEED credits for Building Life-Cycle Impact Reduction achievable with Tally. Learn how to define the scope of your assessment to meet LEED requirements, create a baseline, and compare reports to determine compliance.

Tally represents an effective means of achieving LEED credits for Building Life-Cycle Impact Reduction by leveraging the design model. This session offers an overview of the credit, covering credit language and the options available for meeting the guidelines. The specific requirements of the model will be shown, including the scope necessary for compliance as well as the selection of impact categories and the mandated levels of improvement. The session will also discuss the complex issue of baseline buildings, including which components must be included and options for their generation. Lastly, we will discuss how to generate the reports required for credit documentation.
