  2. Material • Design for dual plumbing to use recycled water for toilet flushing or a gray water system that recovers rainwater or other nonpotable water for site irrigation. • Minimize wastewater by using ultra low-flush toilets, low-flow shower heads, and other water conserving fixtures. • Use recirculating systems for centralized hot water distribution. • Install point-of-use hot water heating systems for more distant locations. • Use a water budget approach that schedules irrigation using the California Irrigation Management Information System data for landscaping. • Meter the landscape separately from buildings. Use micro-irrigation (which excludes sprinklers and high-pressure sprayers) to supply water in nonturf areas. • Use state-of-the-art irrigation controllers and self-closing nozzles on hoses.

  3. sustainability • Autodesk believes today’s building projects should be sustainable by design. Driving sustainable design awareness and adoption is one of the many benefits of building information modeling (BIM) technology. Autodesk is proud that our technology is at the forefront of helping architects, engineers, and construction professionals create a more sustainable world.

  4. How green buildings are designed • Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by: • Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources • Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity • Reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation[2]
