20.500.12556/DiRROS-18438 The challenge of integrating Life Cycle Assessment in the building design process - a systematic literature review of BIM-LCA workflows To foster sustainable development in construction sectors, environmental impacts need to be reduced dramatically. The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) technique is the most firmly established methodology used to quantify these environmental impacts and, therefore, has been applied with increasing frequency to assess the environmental performance of buildings. To effectively improve a building's environmental performance, an integration of LCA in the design process is required. This can be achieved by coupling LCA with digital design tools, e.g., Building Information Modelling (BIM). To identify the pro and cons of streamlining the integration of LCA and BIM, a comprehensive Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was performed. We identified more than 50 relevant BIM-LCA case studies and analysed the applied BIM-LCA workflows in detail. In most of the studies reviewed, the LCA has been applied in an early design stage. The authors primarily used LCA tools and manual or semi-automatic methods to exchange data between BIM models. In most cases, contemporary BIM-LCA workflows utilized conventional spreadsheets (e.g., Excel worksheets). However, the results of the analysis show that an automated link between LCA and BIM can be achieved if certain challenges are overcome. By automating exchange of information between BIM and LCA tools and improving the reliability of this process, the LCA application can be streamlined in design practice and, hence, the necessary improvements of the environmental performance of buildings can be supported. building information modelling life cycle assessment systematic Literature Review infromacijsko modeliranje stavb analiza življenskih vplivov sistematiči pregled literature true false true Institute of Physics Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik © authors, 2019 Neznano 2024-03-18 09:09:55 2024-03-18 09:22:23 2024-03-19 03:44:37 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2019 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 23. 12. 2020; Št. prispevka: 032024; Str. 1-10 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2020-11-20 624 1755-1315 10.1088/1755-1315/588/3/032024 44254211 41550851 https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1755-1315/588/3/032024/pdf Odprti dostop 1 e965ba80-e4fe-11ee-9dd4-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25113 RAZ_Potrc_Obrecht_Tajda_2019.pdf RAZ_Potrc_Obrecht_Tajda_2019.pdf 1 260F2DCC74DAAE61009DF58CB55333F1 153f99993ebd12008b394e0da5fa47762f788f3928c72f55ecde75ed282a768f 98b87e99-e500-11ee-9dd4-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25115 http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1755-1315/588/3/032024 0 a11f3060-e500-11ee-9dd4-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25116 Zavod za gradbeništvo Slovenije 0 0 0
