Changing the course of construction
Buildings and their construction are responsible for 38% to 49% of all greenhouse gas emissions. BamCore builds prefab wall packages from timber bamboo, which are two to four times stronger than conventional frame walls, sequester six times as much carbon, and are up to 60% more thermally efficient.
BamCore uses Autodesk software to design its prefab walls and has collaborated with Autodesk pro bono consultants to improve workflows.
