The Athena Sustainable Materials Institute is a non-profit research collaborative that develops Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) data and software tools specifically for the construction sector. Athena's software suite includes the Impact Estimator for Buildings (comprehensive whole-building LCA tool) and the EcoCalculator for Assemblies (quick assessment spreadsheet tool). These tools are supported by extensive, regionally-sensitive life cycle inventory databases built from actual manufacturing data and are provided free to support widespread LCA adoption.
