SEAoNY Sustainable Design Committee Presents:
EPD Essentials: Exploring Construction's Nutrition Labels for Sustainable Engineering
DATE: Wednesday, February 21, 2024
TIME: 12:30 - 1:30 PM
Zoom Webinar
1 PDH Available
As sustainability and carbon reduction goals creep into projects, engineers will need to become familiar with the documents that record building materials' impact to the environment: environmental product declarations or EPDs. This webinar will provide engineers with an introduction to EPDs. Attendees will learn how to read EPDs and extract the relevant sustainability information for their projects. A breakdown of the key components of EPDs will be provided. The presenter will also explain how the documents are developed and maintained. He will then discuss potential stumbling blocks and give insider tips for successful sustainable engineering implementation.
