P.I.s plan to do research to develop quantitative measures of the environmental impacts of construction materials used in the engineering designs of pipelines, and residential and commercial buildings. They will assess the material and energy inputs (nonrenewable and renewable resources), as well as the emissions and waste (toxic discharges, hazardous waste generation, criteria pollutant emissions, greenhouse gas discharges, ozone-depleting chemical releases) associated with the construction materials' life cycle. The objective is to provide metrics and analysis tools that can help define environmentally-conscious construction. A computer spreadsheet tool will be programmed to provide easy access of construction and environmental professionals to this research's results and allow for informed decision-making.

P.I.计划进行研究，以制定管道、住宅和商业建筑工程设计中使用的建筑材料对环境影响的定量措施。 它们将评估与建筑材料生命周期有关的材料和能源投入（不可再生和可再生资源）以及排放和废物（有毒物质排放、危险废物产生、标准污染物排放、温室气体排放、臭氧消耗化学品排放）。 目标是提供度量和分析工具，帮助定义环保建筑。 将对计算机电子表格工具进行编程，以便建筑和环境专业人员轻松获取本研究结果，并做出明智的决策。
