BECOMING GREEN Santa Margarita High School Academic Building
You see it everywhere BECOMING GREEN
What is LEED LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification provides independent verification that a building project meets the highest green building and performance measures. All certified projects receive a LEED plaque, which is the nationally recognized symbol demonstrating that a building is environmentally responsible, profitable and a healthy place to live and work. BECOMING GREEN
Whyshouldwethink green IMPACT: 30% Greenhouse Gas Emissions 65% Waste Output 12% Water Use 70% Electricity Consumption BECOMING GREEN
What are the benefits SAVINGS: WASTE COST SAVINGS 50-90% WATER USE SAVINGS 30-50% CARBON SAVINGS 35% ENERGY SAVINGS 30% BECOMING GREEN
What are the benefits 20% BETTER TEST PERFORMANCE PRODUCTIVITY: BECOMING GREEN
What is the LEED RATING SYSTEM • Sustainable Sites • Water Efficiency • Energy & Atmosphere • Materials & Resources • Indoor Environmental Quality • Innovation & Design Process BECOMING GREEN
1. SUSTAINABLE SITES • Goals • Develop only appropriate sites • Protect natural and agricultural areas • Reduce need for automobile use BECOMING GREEN
SUSTAINABLE SITES Based on the current design • Erosion Control Plan • Site Selection • Alternative Transportation • (Public transportation) • (Fuel efficient vehicles) • (Bicycle Storage & Changing room) • (Parking capacity) • Protect & Restore Habitat • Stormwater Design • Heat Island Effect non-roof • Light Pollution reduction BECOMING GREEN
2. WATER EFFICIENCY • Goals • Reduce the quantity of water needed for the building. • Reduce water supply and treatment burden. BECOMING GREEN
WATER EFFICIENCY Based on the current design • Water Efficient Landscaping • Innovative Wastewater Technologies • Water Use Reduction (20-30%) BECOMING GREEN
3. ENERGY ATMOSPHERE • Goals • Optimize energy efficiency • Encourage renewable and alternative energy sources BECOMING GREEN
ENERGY ATMOSPHERE Based on the current design • Building Systems Commissioning • Minimum Energy Performance • CFC Reduction in HVAC • Optimize Energy Performance(3) • Enhanced Commissioning • Green Power BECOMING GREEN
4. MATERIALS & RESOURCES • Goals • Reduce the amount of materials needed. • Use materials with less environmental impact. • Reduce and manage waste. BECOMING GREEN
MATERIALS & RESOURCES Based on the current design • Storage and Collection of Recyclables • Construction Waste Management • Material Reuse • Recycled Content • Local/Regional Materials • Rapidly Renewable Materials BECOMING GREEN
5. INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY • Goals • Establish good indoor air quality • Eliminate, reduce, manage the sources of indoor pollutants • Ensure thermal comfort • Provide a healthier environment for users BECOMING GREEN
INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY Based on the current design • Minimum IAQ Requirements • Tobacco Smoke Control • Outdoor Air Delivery Monitor • Increased Ventilation • Low-Emitting Materials (3) • Indoor Chemical & Pollutant Source Control • Controllability of Systems • Thermal Comfort (3) BECOMING GREEN
6. INNOVATION & DESIGN PROCESS • Goals • Exceptional performance above requirements set by the LEED Green Building System • Reward integration of LEED APs into project team. BECOMING GREEN
INNOVATION & DESIGN Based on the current design • Innovation in Design • Educational Outreach Program • Green Cleaning • High volume fly-ash in concrete • Low emitting furniture • Organic landscaping • LEED Accredited Professional BECOMING GREEN
Who is involved in the PROCESS BECOMING GREEN
This is a LEED Certified Building Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design is an internationally recognized green building certification system developed by the U.S. Green Building Council 2stLEED-Certified Green Building in Campus and in the City of Rancho Santa Margarita 2stLEED-Certified Green Building in the Diocese of Orange
