ICM Database
The Integrated Carbon Metrics (ICM) Database is an Australian-specific life cycle inventory providing carbon footprint intensities for construction and building materials. It includes results from both a process method (based on AusLCI process data) and a hybrid method (combining process data with input-output data to capture upstream activities).
