In order to meet climate targets, it is necessary to effectively reduce CO2&nbsp;emissions throughout the entire life cycle of buildings. The seminar teaches the basics of life cycle assessment (LCA) as a tool for determining CO\u2082&nbsp;emissions in construction. The focus is on global warming potential (GWP), which arises throughout the building life cycle in materials, construction, operation and demolition. Tools are used to record and evaluate the data in a structured manner. The aim is to quantify the environmental impact of construction measures in a comprehensible manner and to develop a sound understanding of future-oriented planning and construction in times of climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wednesdays, 9.45-11.15 AM<br>Bldg. 11.40, Room 26<br>First Meeting: 29.10.2025<br>Submission\/Exam: 11.02.2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The construction industry is responsible for 40% of all CO2&nbsp;emissions in Germany.
