LCA Checker, ensuring LCA quality

What does this feature do?

The LCA checker is useful feature which checks the completeness and plausibility of your LCA data. It checks the entered data against the set building area, the set project type and the selected type of frame. It gives you an idea of what how complete your LCA project data is, and in which areas you might have to do some additional research.

How do you use this feature?

First navigate to the results page of your building project. In the results page you, just above the LCA results you will be able to maximize a section called 'Completeness and plausibility checker'. There you will be able to select 'click here for details'. The tool will give your design an overall grade, based on how complete the data is against the set bench-marking data. The results are always an indicator of the plausibility, and exceptions might occur. You can choose yourself to validate the checks if the invalidated checks seem to still yield reasonable values.
