Hi Dirk, Q1. I'm thinking that the exclusion of the foundations and footings is a result of the limitations of the initial versions of the EcoCalculator more than anything. The goal is to expand the assembly items and refine the level of detail around the building assemblies we are measuring, because as you note quite accurately, we're missing significant impact. Q2. Yes O1. Good eye, we can fix that O2. I think we can fix that too! Thanks Again Dirk for the careful and I'm sure time-consuming attention to detail for the benefit of this Pilot. -Whit
