Next Thursday, October 8th at the Net Zero Conference in Los Angeles, TEF’s Diana Hayton and Justin Blinn will be presenting about “The Carbon Case for Reuse: Life-Cycle Lessons from the East Mason Warehouses.”
This session presents a life-cycle assessment and life-cycle cost analysis of the East Mason Warehouses at the Presidio in San Francisco, comparing the 2023 rehabilitation of seven historic warehouses with a hypothetical new-build replacement. Using OneClick LCA, C.Scale and IES-VE, the team quantified embodied carbon, operational energy, and 60-year ownership costs. The as-built renovation achieved an “A” embodied-carbon rating at just 76 kg CO2e/m2, versus more than 600 kg CO2e/m2 for new construction, while also delivering a lower net present cost despite slightly higher utilities. Attendees will learn how reuse, longer replacement cycles, and targeted material choices can substantially reduce whole-life carbon and cost, informing net-zero pathways for portfolios of existing buildings.
Session Speakers:
Abena Darden, Vice President, @thorntontomasetti
Diana Hayton, AIA, LEED AP, NCARB, Principal, TEF Design
Jessica Robbins, Sustainability Planner, @presidiosf
Justin Blinn, Associate Principal, TEF Design
We’re looking forward to the 13th annual convening of climate leaders to re-envision the built environment and inspire a net zero future. See you next week in Los Angeles! 🌎 🌱
