The EFFC has collaborated with the Deep Foundations Institute (DFI) to create the EFFC/DFI Carbon Calculator tool.
The calculator allows the carbon footprint for foundation works to be determined. We are working towards this tool being adopted globally as a means to assess the carbon impact of different designs with the intention of helping clients to select more sustainable solutions for their projects.
