It also helps us to map the greenhouse emissions and check whether a product is contributing to global warming or not.
FORMULAE USED
Volume of cylinder = pi x r^2 x h
Total volume = Volume of individual x Quantity
Density = mass/volume
mass = density x volume
Total mass = mass of individual item x quantity
Net embodied energy = unit embodied energy x total mass
NOTE
Height , depth and thickness are used synonymously
Width and breadth are the same terms
Calculations are done in SI units only
SI unit for length, width, thickness and radius is meters.
SI unit for density is kg/m^3
SI unit for mass is kg
SI unit for unit embodied and total embodied energy is MJ/kg usually
Densities in kg/m^3
Foam board = 62
Acrylic sheet =1200
Steel = 7750(for nuts and bolts)
