For example, at Northlake Commons, the utilization of mass timber estimates 1,990 metric tons of avoided CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) emissions, with a total carbon benefit of 2,920 metric tons; this is equivalent to removing 558 cars from the road or to the energy required to operate 249 homes for an entire year.

In the Netherlands, it’s estimated that 850,000 extra houses will be needed by 2035. There’s also the impact of retrofitting for residents. The Energiesprong Foundation has partnered with manufacturing to create a “whole-building” approach , using prefabricated parts. Getting the fundamentals right with digital construction.

Estimating & Cost Data 5D BIM builds upon 3D and 4D BIM by incorporating estimating and cost data into the model. Sustainability 6D BIM integrates environmental data into the model. This 6th dimension builds on all the other models above to help you optimize the building's environmental performance. What is 5D BIM?:

These principles are essential, given how construction is estimated to create a third of the world’s waste. Through modular design, we can prefabricate entire and repetitive portions of a building offsite, from bathrooms to residential units, then ship them to the site for faster assembly.

These technologies can also streamline the design review process and help teams produce more accurate estimates, thus "reducing budgets and timeline deviations by an estimated 10-20% and engineering hours by 10-30%." billion by 2032. We live in interesting times."
