Hey again, [@Community](https://community.realtimelca.com/groups/community)👋

This release continues our momentum with deep compliance support, refined workflows, and major behind-the-scenes upgrades. Here’s what we’ve been building:

* * *

### **🇩🇰 BR18 2025: Compliance Goes Deeper**

We’re doubling down on our leadership in supporting **BR18 2025** :

- **Standard Values for Terminal Processes** : Now available for projects using the BR18 2025 calculation type

- **Low Emission 2025** : Introduced as a new calculation type, offering another verified pathway for your project documentation.

- **Multiple Fuels for A5 Stage** : Flexibility added—supporting more than one machinery fuel type for more realistic modeling.

- **Updated Threshold Reporting** : BR18 2025 reports now reflect the _correct new limits_—ensuring full compliance.

* * *

### **👥 Project Setup & A5 Fuel Flexibility**

- **LCA Responsible** : You can now designate a responsible person for the LCA directly in **Project Settings**.

- **Number of Users / Persons** : Specify this in your project, and we’ll calculate insights _per person_—visible in the **Project Info Carousel**.

- This also is marks the start of us working on conformity checks for **DGNB Denmark 2025** projects.

* * *

### **🔁 Data Reuse & Library Expansion**

- **Overwrite EPD Lifetimes** : You now have the option to override lifetime values for mapped EPDs with existing lifetimes.

- **+200 Constructions from Byggforsk.no** : Added to the Construction Library—find them via the new **Owner filter**.

* * *

### **🧱 +50 New Manufacturer EPDs Added**

Thanks to your requests via the community, we’ve added **50+ EPDs** from leading manufacturers, including:

**BMI Denmark, Boligbeton A/S, CRH Concrete A/S, DAFA Building Solutions A/S, Flügger Group A/S, Forbo, Gemina Termix, Hunton Fiber AS, Leth Beton A/S, Moland Group A/S, Palsgaard Spær A/S og Palsgaard Spær A/S Afdl. Roust, Phønix Tag Materialer A/S, Vejle Kalk- og Mørtelværk A/S and more** …

You can find them now in the platform—keep the requests coming via our [EPD thread](https://community.realtimelca.com/t/new-topic-for-epd-requests/138)!

* * *

### **🔧 Improvements & Fixes**

- **More QA, Less Noise** : All public materials and constructions have been set to non-public by default—ensuring only high-quality, verified data is searchable.

- **Transport & Waste Mapping** : Bugs fixed and stability improved.

- **User Role Fix** : Contributors can no longer mistakenly assign Admin roles—security and governance tightened.

* * *

### **🚀 Speckle Nextgen: Ready for the Future**

We’ve upgraded our **Speckle servers** to the latest version, which brings two major benefits:

1. ✅ **Nextgen Connectors** for Revit, Rhino, and Archicad are now supported.

2. 🧱 **3D Model Viewer Coming Soon** – The upgrade paves the way for native model previews inside the platform.

> 👉 Detailed upgrade instructions for the new connectors will be shared in a separate post.

* * *

As always, thank you for helping us build the future of climate-smart construction.
