The Sefaira tool uses industry-accredited analysis engines for modelling and comparison of different building designs.  This enables a fast performance assessment across a range of metrics - energy use and carbon emissions, thermal comfort, daylight and HVAC.

Insight is a tool aimed at architects and engineers to support design of more energy-efficient buildings, using advanced simulation engines, and integration with Revit.

The Building Energy Modeling (BEM) sub-program is an important part of BTO and its Emerging Technologies Program. BEM is a versatile, multipurpose tool that is used in new building and retrofit design, code compliance, green certification, qualification for tax credits and utility incentives, and even real-time building control.

Architecture 2030 developed the Zero Tool for building sector professionals, 2030 Challenge and 2030 Commitment adopters, 2030 District Network Members, and policymakers.

EnergyPlus™ is a whole building energy simulation program that engineers, architects, and researchers use to model both energy consumption—for heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting and plug and process loads—and water use in buildings.

The Sustainable Facilities Tool from the U.S. General Services Administration supports facility managers, purchasing agents, designers, tenants, in decision making and action around efficient, healthy buildings and environmentally-responsible purchasing.

Thanks to funding from Innovate UK, in collaboration with the NICER programme, a new ‘toolkit’ has been developed as part of the ASBP-led ‘Delivering Innovative Steel ReUse ProjecT‘ (DISRUPT).

Using the methodology presented in the Eco-innovation Manual, this supplement on building materials provides sector-specific information and guidance to sustainability consultancy service providers supporting companies in eco-innovation. It should be used alongside the Manual to provide further context at each step and examples of how the methodology, activities and templates can be applied in real life to a company in the building materials sector.

The Construction, Demolition & Deconstruction Policy Toolkit was developed by members of Recycle Colorado’s C&D Council, a group of industry stakeholders including public, private, and nonprofit sector entities working to support construction, demolition and deconstruction (C&D) materials recovery in Colorado.  The toolkit is currently in draft.

The Buildings InfoHub provides resources for designers, architects, builders, and other actors in the construction value chain to support actions to reduce the risks and impacts of chemicals in building materials.

Additionally, it provides information and case studies for policymakers, sustainability practitioners, and procurers to support the transition towards more sustainable and chemically safer building materials and products.
