Structural materials such as steel and concrete account for most greenhouse gas emissions due to energy intensive manufacturing processes. Concrete alone accounts for approximately 10–15% of all embodied carbon emissions associated with the built environment. Project location matters. Know where your wood products come from.

Not so funny if you have ever been at the management end of a tight timeline, in an old facility, around on-going operations with the concrete truck on its way and the formwork delayed because the backhoe is out of fuel!! Time schedules, resource schedules and cash flow plans all come from a well thought out cost estimate.
