普拉特15 Life Cycle Assessment
This life cycle assessment (LCA) study compares the embodied carbon, 建设成本, and speed of construction of three functionally equivalent buildings in mass timber, 钢, 和混凝土, all based on an actual mass timber office building in Denver, 科罗拉多州.
The constructed reference building, 普拉特15, was the largest mass timber building in Denver, 科罗拉多州 at the time of its construction, with a height of 70 ft (21.4 meters) and an above-grade floor area of 150,000 ft2 (14,000 m2 ). The building includes four levels of Type III-B construction over a Type I-A concrete podium with two levels of below-grade parking.
The developer was Crescent Real Estate LLC and the project team included OZ 架构师ure, KL&A 工程师s and Builders, and Adolfson and Peterson Construction.
