  1. Lecture 2 Sustainability by design

  2. Information for your cards • Name • Major • Year • Email address you will check regularly • IE, MORE THAN ONCE PER WEEK • Main interest in taking this class, what you intend to get out of it

  3. Service learning assignments • A way for you to connect with low-cost housing construction in our area • Poverty • Is it possible for “green design” to be low-cost? • Learn something about how houses are built, materials, project planning, etc • Write up a contract to agree to 32 hours work • Should be signed by Susan Bishop or Pam Dorr and will require their signature • All hours are to be logged on SL Pro

  4. Texts • The LEED-NC process is well documented in the HOK text • Great if you are interested in commercial construction, provides background for the LEED process as practiced in industry • Others are posted online or handed out in class • Much will be on a ‘need to know’ basis as everyone may be doing different sorts of projects

  5. How this class works • Service learning (ongoing) • Theory and discussion (weekly seminar) • Work in teams of engineering/NC students • Choose a semester project to be the focus of your green design • The last half of the class is spent on this project • Produce a comprehensive design portfolio, presentation to stakeholders, full report with specifications, display poster • GOALS: some LEED experience, practical design experience • If you want to become a LEED AP, you can use this class as a jumping off point for your study • But this class is not an exam prep class

  6. Semester projects: idea 1 • Green redesign of a small house or commercial space • Ideally, one that’s replicable and being replicated • Your project will have ongoing impact • Based on an existing design • You get access to design and materials list/budget from partner organization • Framework: LEED NC or LEED-Homes • Work with organization to develop green innovation that is within the relevant budget and other constraints

  7. Semester projects: idea 2 • Partner with Hale Empowerment and Revitalization Organization (HERO) on the neighborhood design for the “50 zeroes” project • 1-2 groups • Must have some expertise in AutoCAD – drawings will be required • Framework: LEED for Neighborhood Development, LEED-Homes, other input from HERO • Work with HERO on a development plan that will result in a viable neighborhood

  8. Semester projects: idea 3 • Green redesign of an existing building • Framework: LEED-EB, others • Two current options (2 groups) • Building at Canterbury Chapel • Contact: Jon Chalmers • Willie King’s studio, New Memphis, Alabama • Contact: Debbie Bond • Must be able to get or produce PLANS for the building as constructed • Must design improvements to fit the client’s desires under a budget specified by them

  9. Reflection papers • You’ll write these on your own and share them with the class • Informed by service learning work • Topic one (two parts): • What does owning a home mean in America? • Is our current housing system sustainable? Why or why not? Consider economic, environmental, and social sustainability.

  10. Design projects in this class • Identify project: • How are you interested in contributing to the sustainable landscape? • Identify project scope with stakeholders • Identify LEED tools • Work through all credits systematically • For each credit: • Potential improvements • Cost • Capital costs • Operating costs • Life-cycle costing • What are the barriers to implementation? • Availability of materials and products? • Contractor knowledge/ability • Industry standards • Code issues • Materials or labor costs

  11. More on the design process • What other, innovative ideas could help increase sustainability? • Economic • Environmental (and health) • Social • “Meeting our needs without compromising future needs” • Develop a spreadsheet to document credits

  12. More intro on LEED • LEED CREDIT CATEGORIES for New Construction: • Sustainable sites (SS) • Water efficiency (WE) • Energy and atmosphere (EA) • Materials and resources (MR) • Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) • Innovation and design (ID)

  13. Credit categories for LEED-Homes • Innovation and design process (ID) • Location and linkages (LL) • Sustainable sites (SS) • Water efficiency (WE) • Energy and atmosphere (EA) • Materials and resources (MR) • Indoor environmental quality (EQ) • Awareness and education (AE)

  14. Dates • 14 February: topic due • 28 February: proposed project outline due • 6 March: midterm report and project presentation due • To a group of stakeholders and reviewers • For feedback and for staying on track • 1 May: final report, design portfolio, and poster due • 8 May: final presentation to stakeholders and reviewers (& open to the public)

  15. Today • Introduction to blueprints • Reading plans, “material takeoffs” • Introduction to LEED process • LEED-NC sustainable sites and materials credits

  16. For next time • Go over Handouts, become familiar with all credits related to sustainable sites and materials • LEED-Homes – read through and acquaint yourself with the basics • Pp 41-48 in HOK book on Project Definition for commercial projects • Begin logging hours on SL Pro
