Thanks to the implementation of environmental data in the definition of the job concepts, it is now possible to determine the value of the project’s environmental impact indicators.
The unit value of the energy cost (MJ) or the CO2 emissions (kg) of a simple element is introduced using the technical information parameters of the concept. However, for composite elements, these values are obtained by adding the components of the price breakdown ("performance" * "unit value of the component indicator").
To obtain the values of the project, the unit values of the environmental impact indicators are multiplied by the quantity assigned to each item.
In order to allow the calculated values to be viewed, the "Environmental data" option has been added to the "Filter" group in the application's toolbar. When activating it in a cost database or when defining the prices of the job, the unit values corresponding to the environmental impact indicators will be shown. If it is activated in the bill of quantities, the values calculated for the job will be shown, both for the items and the work sections. Additionally, in the "BreakDown" tab associated with each item, two new columns will appear with data on the energetic cost and the CO2 emissions corresponding to the breakdown of the concept.
Finally, to document this information an "Environmental impact indicators" report has been added, which can be generated from the "BoQ reports" option in the toolbar.
