Introduction
The MYCREST Carbon Sequestration Calculator is design to calculate, in the proposed green building,
the following points in MYCREST:
iii) IS13 - Conserve natural ecology of landscape elements Total Carbon Capture for IS13: 0.0000 tCO2e

Instructions
Efforts have been put into this tool to ensure that it is easy and simple to use while providing accurate results
The applicant need to do site inventory to ensure the plants are being maintaned as per as built drawing.
The data gathered will be use in calculationg carbon sequestration in the calculator IS15
Data are requested on all coloured boxes:
Indicates user-input
Indicates calculated output. Non-editable

Baseline
a) In the BAU scenario the whole area of development is assumed to be cleared.
b) Water bodies and natural reserves are assumed to remain undisturbed
during construction.

 METHODS OF CARBON SEQUESTRATION CALCULATION
A) TREE B) GRASS

Step 1: Height of Tree Step 1: Total Dry Weight (TDW)

Height: 1/H = 1/(2.0*D) + 1/61 TDW = 0.56 x Area in meter square
: W = 0.25 x ((D2/6.4515) x (H/0.3048) x 1.2) Step 2: Total Carbon Weight (TCW)
Step 2: Mass of Stem TCW = TDW x 0.427
Ms = 0.0313*(D2H)0.9733 Step 3: Total CO2 Weight (TCO2W)
Step 3: Mass of Branch TCO2W = TCW x 3.6663
Mb = 0.136*Ms1.070 Step 4: Total ton CO2 Weight (T CO2W)
Step 4: Mass of Leaves tCO2e = TCO2W/1000
Ml = 1/Ml=1/(0.124Ms0.794)+1/125
Step 5: Total AGB
AGB = (Ms+Mb+Ml) x No of Trees
Step 6: Total Biomass
Biomass = Total AGB /1000
Step 7 : Total Carbon
Carbon = TBiomass x 0.47
Step 8: Carbon Coeficient for Open Grown Tree in City
Coefficient = Tcarbon x 0.8
Step 9: Carbon Sequestration
Carbon Sequestration = Coefficient x 44/12
