Setting your Building Area

Building area functions as a denominator of your calculation results. 

1. Click 'Input data' and open 'Building area'.

2. Choose the suggested area definition and enter the Gross Internal Floor Area (GIFA).

GIFA will then be used to calculate the embodied carbon emissions and material efficiency in kg/m2 in your results report.
