emission and total environmental impact of the building during its service life are calculated. In the next stage, the results of this spreadsheet through the case study for the different geographical scenarios (different locations in the UK) were compared in a statistical approach (using Microsoft Excel/SPSS). Therefore, the impact of geographical variation and climatic change on the BLCA was highlighted (refer to Chapter 8). Hence, as a principal goal of this research, the level of confidence that might be expected from the BLCA was determined. 5.3 A More Detailed Explanation of the Measurement Phases in the New Spreadsheet The measurement spreadsheet to demonstrate the guideline of the new framework introduced by this research was developed established on calculation of the following values (see figure 5.3): section detail material area (m2) height (m) volume (m3) density (kg/m3) total weight (in kg and tonnes) EE per m3 EC per m3 EE Total EC OE (resulting from the Ecotect 2011 modelling) Eco-point (resulting from the Envest 2 modelling).
