From the perspectives of a policymaker, an engineer, a concrete supply specialist, and an architect, this panel will focus on emerging paths to achieve lower embodied carbon and global warming potential in concrete. Two panelists have lead roles in The Bay Area Built Environment Embodied Emissions Project, aiming to reduce embodied emissions in the built environment by creating local specifications and model policies for low embodied-carbon concrete, developed through a robust regional stakeholder engagement process. The panel will discuss lessons learned from one 9-story, Type IB concrete affordable housing building and how to ensure the subcontractors are given latitude to meet carbon goals. A sustainability expert in the concrete supply industry will discuss the parameters and constraints of add-mixtures, mix design, and global warming potential.
