Hi All,
I am trying to prep a presentation outlining some of the tools available to perform the "Whole-Building Life-Cycle Assessment" that are used in LEED.
I am aware of Tally (Revit Plugin) but I believe this would require a fair amount of training and time to develop the capability. Anyone has any suggestions regarding other tools I could use?
Regards
Ricardo

Hello Ricardo,
Please consider One Click LCA in your software evaluation. We are a web-based tool for whole building LCA and we include a plugin with Revit. We provide free trials so you can make an informed decision.

The Athena Impact Estimator for Buildings is usually on most lists, because it's been around since 2002 and it's free.
