IC61 - DRAFTING I Essential Standard 1.02 Understanding Industrial Design, Sustainable Design, and LEED
Industrial Design What is Industrial Design?
The Short Answer? • Industrial Design (or I.D.) is the Design of all of the Stuff that we use every day.
Industrial Designers: • DESIGN things like cars, bikes, furniture, tools and equipment, computers, medical devices, house wares, toys – all the stuff you see in stores, all the stuff people use at home and work every day, the things that most people think just appear somehow. • Sometimes the term Product Design is substituted for Industrial Design. • 2013 International Design Excellence Awards
So, what isn’t Industrial Design? • Fashion Designers: design Clothing and Fabrics. • Graphic Designers: design Websites, Computer apps, Magazines, Advertising, Packaging & more. • Similar to I.D. but usually only 2-Dimensional. • Architects, Engineers, Urban Planners, Interior Designers and Landscape Architects design the Places and Spaces in which we live.
Do you understand? • Prove it. • Take a few minutes to make your own list of 6 items, in this room, that were probably designed by an Industrial Designer. • Can you also list 2 things that were probably designed by a Graphic Designer? • How about 1 thing by an Architect? • And lastly, 1 thing by an Engineer?
Do you really understand? • DO IT. • You will now work in small groups to Design a Better: 1. Pencil Sharpener 2. Stapler 3. Hole Punch 4. Rolling Desk Chair 5. Computer Mouse. See Handout for Instructions. A better Mousetrap?
Sustainable Design What is Sustainable Design?
The Short Answer: • Sustainable design seeks to reduce negative impacts on the environment, and the health and comfort of building occupants, thereby improving building performance.
Sustainable Design Objectives: • Reduce Consumption of Non-Renewable Resources (More on this later) • Minimize Waste • Raw Materials Used in Construction • Packaging: Pre-Use and Post-Use • Reduce – Reuse - Recycle • Create Healthy, Productive Environments • Use Non-Toxic & Recycled Building Materials • Use of Natural Lighting & Ventilation
What is a Non-Renewable Resource? • Once it is used, it is gone forever, or it can’t be reused for anything else. • Examples of Non-Renewable Energy? How We Waste Energy
What is a Renewable Resource? • It is easily Replaced and/or can be Reused or Recycled. • Examples of Renewable Energy? Using Wind Power
What is a Renewable Resource? • Is Wood a Renewable Resource? • Sometimes Yes (Bamboo) • Sometimes No (Slow growing Hardwoods) • Is an Aluminum Window Frame a Renewable Resource? • Yes. Aluminum building products can be easily Recycled.
Sustainable Design Principles: • Optimize Site Potential • Minimize Non-Renewable Energy Consumption • Use Environmentally Preferable Products • Protect and Conserve Water • Enhance Indoor Environmental Quality • Optimize Operational and Maintenance Practices
U.S. General Services AdministrationSustainable Facilities Tool help designers: • Optimize Site Potential • Minimize Non-Renewable Energy Consumption • Use Environmentally Preferable Products • Protect and Conserve Water • Enhance Indoor Environmental Quality • Optimize Operational and Maintenance Practices • Use this online tool to list at least 2 practices for each of the Sustainable Design Principals • Sustainable Facilities Tool (http://sftool.gov/)
LEED What is LEED?
The Short Answer: • LEED stands for Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design
But, what IS LEED? • LEED is a green building tool that addresses the entire building lifecycle by recognizing best-in-class building strategies, thereby reducing its overall impact on the environment. • LEED is a program that provides third-party verification of green buildings. • Building projects satisfy prerequisites and earn points to achieve different levels of certification.
How does LEED work? • Projects earn points to satisfy green building requirements in specific categories. • Within each of the LEED credit categories, projects must satisfy prerequisites and earn points. • The number of points the project earns determines its level of LEED certification.
What are the 5 Main Credit Categories? (They should sound familiar) • Sustainable sites credits encourage strategies that minimize the impact on ecosystems and water resources. • Water efficiency credits promote smarter use of water, inside and out, to reduce potable water consumption. • Energy & atmosphere credits promote better building energy performance through innovative strategies. • Materials & resources credits encourage using sustainable building materials and reducing waste. • Indoor environmental quality credits promote better indoor air quality and access to daylight and views. • There are also 3 Neighborhood Development Categories, 2 Home Credit Categories and 2 Bonus Credit Categories.
What are the 4 LEED Certification Levels? • CERTIFIED: 40 – 49 Points • SILVER: 50 – 59 Points • GOLD: 60 – 79 Points • PLATINUM: 80 Points and above
Why should you design a LEED Certified Building? • To Lower Operating Costs and Increase its Resale Value. • To Conserve Energy, Water and other Natural Resources. • To Create a Healthier and Safer Building for its Occupants. • To Qualify for Money-Saving Incentives, like Tax Rebates and Zoning Allowances.
What are you going to make me find out about LEED? • Do you remember those Extra Categories I mentioned earlier? • “There are also 3 Neighborhood Development Categories, 2 Home Credit Categories and 2 Bonus Credit Categories.” • That’s right, you are going to find out what they are. • www.usgbc.org is the place to look. • You are also going to provide examples of things to do that meet the requirements of the 5 Main Categories. But that is for tomorrow.
Review • What is Industrial Design? • Industrial Design (or I.D.) is the Design of all of the Stuff that we use every day. • What is Sustainable Design? • Sustainable design seeks to reduce negative impacts on the environment, and the health and comfort of building occupants, thereby improving building performance. • What is LEED? • LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) is a green building tool that addresses the entire building lifecycle by recognizing best-in-class building strategies, thereby reducing its overall impact on the environment. It is a tool for achieving Sustainable Design.
