REAL-World Design Tool for Sustainable Design
 
This comprehensive, updated edition of the definitive reference on sustainable design includes extensive new design process information, updated case studies, and post- occupancy evaluations organized to support use of the USGBC's LEED(r) (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System. Complete with practical tools and real-world examples, this hands-on reference for architects, engineers, planners, landscape architects, interior designers, construction contractors, building owners and operators, and students includes:
* Eighteen case studies reflecting HOK's own application of sustainable design principles to real buildings, several with postoccupancy evaluations that demonstrate how sustainable design can be practical, cost-effective, and good for both buildings and business
* "Ten Key Steps" provide a road map for the integrated multidisciplinary design process that is essential to successful sustainable design projects
* Concise checklists of actions to consider at each step in the process, followed by detailed how-to information and guidance on best practices organized by the LEED(r) categories: sustainable sites, water efficiency, energy & atmosphere, materials & resources, and indoor environmental quality
* Building type-specific guidance on how to apply sustainable design to airports, convention centers, correctional facilities, health care facilities, laboratories, museums, office buildings, and commercial interiors
