  • Evaluating the possibilities of LCA analysis in CAD software for wood products [Elektronski vir]
    Remic, Katarina, 1998- ...
    Wood is recognised by the European Union as a promising and sustainable raw material. However, as with other materials, emissions and impacts must be monitored throughout the life cycle of products ... in order to maintain the positive environmental characteristics. Often a full LCA is carried out to assess the environmental footprint of a product, but some CAD programmes have integrated sustainability assessment as one of the functions. They allow for a simple emissions assessment during the modelling phase. The benefits are mainly recognised for environmentally conscious manufacturing, but some software makes it possible to determine the entire life cycle of a product. Considering the environmental impact in the product modelling phase with CAD software is a simpler solution for more conscious production. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether software that is primarily intended for mechanical modelling can also evaluate wood products and in what extent. Ensuring that the data gaps relating to the life cycle emissions of wood-based materials and products are closed will make it easier for CAD developers to include the assessment of wood in their LCA-like tools. Furthermore, as woodbased materials are very diverse, the integration of AI into such tools will enable faster and more accurate assessments.
