Quantifying Embodied Carbon Reductions through Mixed Reality Integration in Prefabrication: A Monte Carlo–Enhanced Life Cycle Approach

Abstract

AbstractThe construction industry produces a large amount of carbon emissions, with a significant portion attributed to embodied carbon (EC). Prefabrication has the potential to reduce EC through streamlined workflows and controlled production ...Practical ApplicationsThis study demonstrates the practical potential of integrating mixed reality (MR) technology into prefabricated construction workflows to reduce environmental impact, particularly in terms of embodied carbon (EC) emissions. The study ...
