Abstract The researches for reduce CO2 are going along animatedly in hole industry area. In construction area, the researches to minimize CO2 emission are progressing variously. The researches to minimize CO2 emission based on CO2 emission. The method measuring CO2 emission are using CO2 emission coefficient on fuel consumption, LCA and an inter-industry relation table. Especially, the methods using the carbon emission coefficient based on fuel consumption are 3 types(Tier1~Tier3) of IPCC. Present, the most using method(Tier1) is using the fuel consumption and the carbon emission coefficient. But because this method do not effect each vehicle distance and driving environment, we can't calculate right CO2 emission. Especially construction project's CO2 emission could be different by project's characteristic. However, we can't apply these difference with present methods. So we need methodology calculating CO2 emission by applying personal project's characteristic and these methodology's most important things is directly measuring CO2 emission of construction equipment which use energy. The object of this study is to develop the CO2 emission calculation methodology which occur in construction process, is to suggest ways to measure in real time CO2 emission from construction equipment.
