SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. The Professional’s use of a balance of appropriate materials, products and design methods that reduce the impact to the natural ecosystems and be within the Budget constraints of the Project. Sustainable Design shall be used wherever possible by the Professional in their Project design and an itemized list shall be provided with the Professional’s Contract Documents that identifies the processes and products.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. 8.1 The Professional shall provide an integrative design approach to deliver a sustainable design for all projects. The integrative design approach shall be a collaborative and iterative process involving all project team members. The Professional shall assemble the members of this integrative design project team and shall meet throughout the various design phases and periodically during construction to ensure follow-through. The Professional, as the leader of the integrative design project team, shall employ strategies, tools and software as needed to optimize building performance. The Professional shall assess the many attributes of the building design including orientation, solar gain, on-site wind, shading and daylighting/glare design and control to optimize building performance.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. Upon completion of the Construction Document Phase for each phase of the Project or appropriate portion thereof, the Associate shall submit to the University documentation and proof, in a format approved by the University, that the design has incorporated the concepts of sustainable design, as stated in the “University Design Guidelines and Standards”, consistent with a LEED™ “ ” Certification Level.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. As part of the Board's goal to incorporate environmentally sustainable design in building and infrastructure improvements, Consultant is required to identify and provide a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) accredited professional on its staff to assist with design. A copy of the individual's LEED certificate must be provided to the Board upon request.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. The Developer shall design and construct the Project in accordance with applicable provisions of the San Francisco Building Code and Administrative Bulletin AB-093.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. The Project will incorporate Energy Star appliances, where economically feasible, to enhance the energy efficiency of the building.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. The recently released Capitol Hill Eco-District report outlines strategies and considerations any developer should evaluate in pursuing sustainable building practices, such as participating in the Seattle 2030 District and providing for district approaches to energy and water management. N GREENSCAPE N TREESCAPE PUBLIC BENEFIT & URBAN DESIGN FRAMEWORK VISION PUBLIC BENEFIT Sound Transit XXX policy encourages the agency to demonstrate good transit-oriented design and land use mixes appropriate to their setting, transit mode, and market conditions. An approved Development Agreement would create appropriate regulations, to be further guided by encumbrances and design guidelines by way of this Coordinated Development Plan and City-adopted new community design guidelines that will apply to the XXX sites. In response to the above policy, the public benefits shown in the CDP are voluntary on Sound Transit’s part. They exceed any public benefits provided by recent Broadway developments, and are not those typically required by City development regulations. The centerpiece of good transit-oriented design are those amenities that encourage place making and active spaces. Sites A and B, that could accommodate the popular and vibrant Broadway Farmers Market. As previously described, additional public benefits include bicycle parking in excess of code requirements, public access on and through private property, the place-making amenity of the main station block plaza and private plinth plaza adjacent Xxxxx Festival Street. These enhancements, inspired by the UDF, are beyond those typically provided by new development projects. Superior public accessibility occurs east to west on the main station block, through the Site A and B-South buildings, along the eastern facade of Site A, and the full length of Xxxxx Place Extension, linking East Xxxx and Xxxxx Way, and Broadway and 10th Avenue. The building pass-throughs, plaza and Xxxxx Place Extension, while private property, will be encumbered by Sound Transit for managed public use. Design and materials coordination will occur at N the interface of Xxxxx Place Extension, the plaza and the Xxxxx Way Festival Street. N The Capitol Hill Light Rail Station XXX Sites Urban Design Framework (UDF) embodies a considerable community effort to create a vision for Sound Transit’s future development sites. In response to that effort, this Coordinated Development Plan has endeavored to incorporate numerous design elements and suggestions...
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. 3.1 The CONSULTANT shall provide an integrative design approach to deliver a sustainable design for all projects. The integrative design approach shall be a collaborative and iterative process involving all project team members. The CONSULTANT shall assemble the members of this integrative design project team and shall meet throughout the various design phases and periodically during construction to ensure follow- through. The CONSULTANT, as the leader of the integrative design project team, shall employ strategies, tools and software as needed to optimize building performance. The CONSULTANT shall assess the many attributes of the building design including orientation, solar gain, on-site wind, shading and daylighting/glare design and control to optimize building performance.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. The Architect/Engineer’s design should strive to ensure energy conservation, and should demonstrate cost-effective Green Building Practices wherever possible. To determine the appropriate environmentally sustainable features to incorporate into this project, the Architect/Engineer shall prepare a draft "Sustainable Features Evaluation Report" evaluating potential options, life cycle costs (up to three life cycle cost analysis of major energy consuming systems) for each option, and recommendations as to which are most applicable to this project. The draft report shall include the appropriate LEED checklist, and shall be submitted in conjunction with the schematicdesign plans. After reviewing the draft report with the County, the Architect/Engineer shall finalize the report, submit it to the County, and include the approved features into the design.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. 8.1 Sustainable design is a main goal of the integrated design approach. The Professional shall provide an integrated design approach to deliver a sustainable design for all new buildings, additions, and substantial renovations or reconstructions. The term “substantial renovations/reconstructions” shall mean a capital project in which the scope of work includes work affecting at least two of the primary building systems and the building area is unable to remain occupied due to the nature of the construction for 30 days or more. Primary building systems are defined for purposes of this explanation as: 1) HVAC, 2) Electrical and/or lighting, 3) Exterior Walls and/or Windows, 4) Roof and/or ceilings 5) Plumbing. These projects shall be referred to as LEED TM projects. For all other project types (those projects which are not new buildings, additions, and substantial renovations/reconstructions) the Professional shall integrate sustainable design attributes as they relate to the project scope. These projects shall be referred to as Sustainable projects. The integrated design process shall be a collaborative and iterative process involving all project team members. The Professional shall assemble the members of this integrated project team and shall meet throughout the various design phases and periodically during construction, to ensure follow-through. The Professional, as the leader of the integrated project team, shall undertake whole-system (whole building) analyses, considering interactions among systems. Examples of systems that should be analyzed together include, but are not limited to: lighting (electrical and natural) with mechanical systems, day-lighting with envelope systems and mechanical systems, water (supply and waste) and heating and cooling; windows, ventilation and lighting, finishes and ventilation. For LEED TM Projects the Professional shall:
