Collecting data
- In order to feed GBC calculators we collect data in advance and include them:
- Green Building Product Data Collection
- Green Building Price Book
- Green Building Readymade Elemental Assemblies
- Supporting letters
Using collected data
- We are collecting data for a number of purposes
- We create look-up-table to be interrogated by and feed data into cells of:
- Green Building Calculator
- Green Retrofit Calculator
- Firstplanit Platform
Exporting data
- The outputs of GBC calculators will include:
- U values
- In use energy
- In use carbon
- Embodied Energy
- Embodied Carbon (Sequestered and total carbon)
Elemental U Values, Areas, Temperature differences, Energy Demands & %s & Scenarios 
Elemental demands, Heat loss, In use energy, carbon and costs, Embodied energy to Sequestered carbon
- Others to follow:
- Green Building Robust Specification
- Green Building Materials Passport
- Green Building Method Statement
- Green Building FM Maintenance Specification

Green Building Calculator launches Version 2 at Futurebuild 2022
Hello current and future Carbon-Counters
- GBC V2 is MS Excel-based, open-book, a multi-functional design and decision tool and calculator,
- It adds whole building embodied energy, embodied carbon, sequestered carbon and costs to the existing in-use energy, carbon and costs of GBC V1.
- GBC V2 calculates Form Factor to help set U value targets, it engages user’s choice of regulated, design standards, or campaign targets, including:
- UK or any national regulations; AECB, CL, CLR, PH, EnerPHit; LETI, ACAN, RIBA, TfL, etc.
- GBC V2’s elemental assemblies allow choice of components, materials or products; checks, confirms U values meet targets or warns if not.
- Summary sheet emphasises which elements have disproportionate heat losses to enable review of specification choices.
- GBC V2 includes a bill of quantities to allow cost planning, quotation collating, tendering;
- with cost and carbon data, intelligent value engineering is possible.

Hello Solution Providers
- The launch of GBC Version 2 initiates the need for two fundamentally important datasets:
- Green Building Product Data Collection (GBPDC):
- It includes ‘Golden-thread CCPI quality’ product properties and performance, with embodied energy, embodied carbon, sequestered carbon and Environmental Product Declaration data.
- More > GBE > Product Data Collection > https://greenbuildingencyclopaedia.uk/?p=14563
- Green Building Price Book (GBPB):
- Products, Accessories, Labour and Plant rates
- GBC V2 includes drop down lists of appropriate products to choose from, users select your company and products by name, it then interrogates this data to populate the calculator’s cells from look up tables and automatically calculates many impacts.
- GBC V2 includes a bill of quantities to interrogate GBPB to allow competent cost planning & tendering
- With cost, performance and impact data linked dynamically, all in one place, intelligent value engineering is possible and substitution avoided.
