WC3 Carbon App

Australia's first comprehensive embodied carbon calculator for civil infrastructure. Designed by our Chartered Engineers to rapidly assess the carbon footprint of your designs.

Democratising carbon

The Worsley Civil Carbon Calculator (WC3) was built for engineers by engineers. It elevates embodied carbon analysis from the domain of specialists to empower the entire project team.

Digitally integrated

We've partnered with Civil Site Design to eliminate hours of manual data entry. Export your project's takeoff data from CSD and WC3 will instantly calculate its carbon footprint.

Get certified

WC3 is registered with the Infrastructure Sustainability Council. Use the app to provide key credits towards your project’s IS Rating certification.

Elevate your workflow

    Developed for Australia

    Our calculation engine covers the entire embodied carbon lifecycle, modules A to D, while focusing on upfront carbon. Understand the emissions you control, built on a foundation of trusted, Australian data.

  • A digital screenshot of a web page containing a 'Scenario Comparison' with dropdown menus for selecting options, and a 'Bar Chart' comparing embodied carbon emissions (kg CO2e) across construction categories for two scenarios, labeled 'Option T' and 'Option 3'.

    A path to net zero

    Apply intensity benchmarks and set carbon reduction targets. Our scenario modelling allows you to seamlessly test and compare design choices.

  • Screenshot of a report page showing an AI summary and chart with project embodied carbon data, including categories like pavement, utilities, miscellaneous, earthworks, and construction.

    Strategic insights

    Facilitate better decision-making with integrated reporting and analysis. Our AI Assistant provides helpful summaries, checks data inputs, and assists in generating a clear narrative.

Your data, your way

Default Data

Get started instantly with a pre-populated library of Australian-specific emission factors from sources like NABERS and AusLCI.

A carbon tool for all stakeholders

The WC3 App is designed to support every role in the planning of infrastructure.

  • Instantly import your entire project from Civil Site Design. Rapidly compare design options such as pavement materials or pipe types to identify the lowest-carbon solution.

  • Move beyond tools designed for buildings. Use the purpose-built WC3 to generate reports for infrastructure and open space projects.

  • Use WC3 analysis and scenario modelling to demonstrate the value of nature-based solutions to your clients.

  • Set, track, and verify embodied carbon targets across your portfolio. Use a standardised framework to accurately measure your Scope 3 emissions.
