Who is using cove

the portland building renovation

Reducing Carbon Footprint in Building Design

Architect Dami Lee and Nilesh Bansal from cove.tool discuss how cove.tool addresses a gap in the construction design phase to reduce the amount of embodied carbon in a building's lifecycle. They examine the renovation of the historically significant Portland Building, led by DLR Group Design. By using cove.tool, they estimate that the renovation successfully reduced potential carbon emissions by 700,000 kgCO2.

The future of sustainable building design is here

As a leading contributor to global carbon emissions, the AEC industry plays a critical role in addressing climate change. Our powerful Carbon Feature enables comprehensive carbon analysis, bridging the gap between timely insights and effective decision-making. By leveraging real-time structural engineering and energy modeling simulations, we provide precise carbon estimates and actionable targets from day one. Through active collaboration with project teams and structural engineers, we track progress and drive impactful results. Partner with us to decarbonize buildings and create a sustainable future.
