BCI Material use

The BCI Building calculation is used by Building Revolution in many projects.

BCI Building has a BCI score. This score is a combination of a Loosenability (LI) and Material Circularity Index (MCI). BCI Building gives circularity a score. Building Revolution makes and validates calculations. Here we discuss Material Use.

BCI Building materialisation

BCI Gebouw berekening opbouw MCI en Li zijn BCI
  1. Materials and Their Origin:
    • Each product in the structure is analysed for circularity of material use.
    • Evaluation of raw materials, with emphasis on origin and sustainability.
  2. Future scenario of Materials:
    • Forecasting the future use and treatment of materials.
    • Focus on recycling, reusing and minimising new raw materials.
  3. Durability of Materials:
    • The durability of products determines their lifetime in the structure.
    • Longer life leads to less waste and replacements, improves sustainability.
  4. Utility factor:
    • Ratio number between technical and expected life tussen technische en verwachte levensduur.
    • Industrieel gemiddelde bepaalt duurzaamheid van producten.
  5. Material Circularity Index (MCI):
    • Amalgamation of origin, future scenario and utility factor.
    • MCI ranges between 0.00 (linear) and 1.00 (circular).
    • Impact on Circular Economy:
  6. Linear economy: 
    • product loss, new raw materials needed.
  7. Circular economy:  
    • products are recycled or reused. 
    • MCI measures circular potential independent of assembly in structure.
  8. Results in Percentages:
    • Shares of new, recycled, biobased raw materials and reused components per product.
    • Future scenario and utility factor expressed in percentages.
    • The BCI Measurement Methodology emphasises circular use of materials, promotes sustainable product life cycles and promotes the transition to a circular construction economy.

BCI Calculation validation

Building Revolution validates BCI Building calculations.
If you want a BCI calculation with a check on the correctness of the entered data and thus a check on the accuracy of the BCI score, BCI Building experts can perform this check for you.
This shows you that the calculation has always been entered 100% correctly.

BCI Building benefits

A building with BCI Building has many different advantages.

  • Various buildings can now be compared
  • Actively drive continuous improvement during the construction process
  • Corporate sustainability is a must to the outside world
