LCANZ Autumn Webinars: Carbon - Firth's EC Calculator

Autumn Webinar Series
We are excited to be organising an Autumn webinar series. We have a great line up of speakers followed by question and answer sessions.

Keep your Wednesdays at 1pm free through April and May!

Carbon - this is our final Carbon webinar on 13th April

Embodied Carbon Calculator created by Firth with Dene Cook. 

Dene Cook is the Divisional Technical manager for the Concrete Division of Fletcher Building. He is a Chartered Professional Engineer and a Fellow of Engineers NZ. Dene started his career in engineering consultancy focusing on structural and geotechnical engineering. The later part of his career has been focused on concrete as a material. He has served on many NZ Standard committees, is the Chair of Concrete NZ, and was instrumental in the development of Firth's EPD and Carbon Calculator for Concrete.

Firth’s LCA-based Embodied Carbon Concrete Calculator (EC3) allows for the design of customerspecific low-carbon concrete mixes that still tick all
the boxes for strength and durability. With the EC3 tool, Firth can design mixes to meet their customers’ desired Embodied Carbon (EC) rating
and thus make a meaningful contribution to the low carbon efforts of the construction industry as a whole.
