## 🔢 Upfront Embodied Carbon Calculator
[Open Calculator](https://huggingface.co/spaces/EricCRX/Upfront_Embodied_Carbon_Calculator)

**Purpose:**  
Estimate and analyze *A1–A5 upfront embodied carbon* for construction materials and assemblies.  
The tool allows uploading data, computing per-module and total CO₂e, and visualizing results for comparative design decisions.

**Methodology:**  
Based on the EN 15978 life-cycle framework, it quantifies emissions across:
- A1: Raw material extraction  
- A2: Transport to manufacturer  
- A3: Manufacturing  
- A4: Transport to site  
- A5: Construction and installation
