5. Water consumption/wastewater generation The IRM Model land use waste carbon transportation energy water materials Design life, material consumption Water consumption rates Landtake Density Units Emission factors, trip length, % Land use demand Generation Composition Supply Emission rates Integrated Resource Management (IRM) CO2 emissions (indirect, direct, mobile) Energy consumption Waste generated & diverted VMTs Embodied Carbon in Materials compare baseline and design across multiple indicators compare baseline with design compare alternatives compare with comparable everyday items (e.g. waste generation measured in # of garbage bins) detect “hotspots” of resource consumption across the plan
