Abstract This paper introduces a system called "Schedule Integrated CO2 Measurement system" (SICM). SICM estimates the amount of CO2 emission generated by construction resources(i.e., laborer, equipment) by using schedule data. It consists of 3 modules as follows: (1) Module 1 which inputs schedule data and performs CPM calculation; (2) Module 2 which retrieves resource information from the schedule data and computes the amount of CO2 emission; (3) Module 3 which displays a bar-chart and cumulative graph which presents CO2 emission per working day. This paper presents the system prototype in detail. A case study is presented to demonstrate the system.
