PIntegrative Project Planning and Design

HC only		to maximize opportunities for integrated, cos-effective adoption of green design and construction strategies, emphasizing human health.- Determine preliminary rating goals as a result of charrette. Create a LEED action plan:
* LEED certification lvl to pursue
* LEED credits that will be pursued
* team members assigned and responsible for each prerequisite and selected credit
- Prepare Owner's Project Requirements (OPR) document and a health mission statement that addresses the economic, environmental and social values. Include goals and strategies to protect the health of building occupants.
- Assemble an integrated project team and include professionals (min 4)
- Conduct min 4-hour charette with all members.		Integrated Project Professionals:
- owner's capital budget manager - architect and designer
- mechanical engineer - energy modeler
- equipment planner - acoustical consultant
- telecommunications designer - controls designer
- food service staff - building or performance testing agent
- green building consultant - facility green teams
- physical and nursing teams - facility manager
- environmental services staff - functional and space programmers
- commissioning agent - community representatives
- civil engineer - landscape architect
- ecologist - land planner - construction manager or general contractor
- life-cycle cost analyst, construction cost estimator
- lighting designer etc		ANSI Consensus National Standard Guide 2.0 - Design and Construction of Sustainable Buildings and Communities

CIntegrative Process

1pt		to support high-performance cost-effective project outcomes through an early analysis of the interrelationships among systems.To conduct preliminary energy and water research and analyses and use that information to identify synergies.
Discovery phase.
Complete simple box energy analysis with min 2:
- site conditions - shading, lighting, hardscape, landscape, adjacent site conditions.
- massing and orientation - effect on HVAC sizing, energy consumption, lighting, renewable energy opportunities.
- basic envelope attributes - insulation values, window-to-wall ratios, glazing, shading, window operability.
- thermal comfort
- lighting lvls - interior surface reflectance values, lighting levels for occupants.
- plug and process load needs - reducing plug and process loads through programmatic solutions.
- programmatic and operational parameters - multifunctioning spaces, operating schedules, space allotment per person, teleworking, reduction of building area, and anticipated operations and maintenance.
Conduct water budget analysis:
- indoor water demand - flow and flush fixture design case.
- outdoor water demand - landscape irrigation design case.
- process water demand - kitchen, laundry, cooling tower, and other.
- supply sources - potential non potable water source volumes.
Implementation Phase.
Project team must demonstrate how analysis informed building design.		During charette the following must be achieved:
- introduce all members to the fundamentals of the integrative process
- share research and analysis data
- elicit the owner's and stakeholder's values
- clarify functional and programmatic goals
- establish targets
- identify targeted LEED credits
- generate potential integrative strategies for achieving performance targets
- identify responsibilities and deliverables
- initiate OPR.

CLEED Accredited Professional

1pt		to encourage team integration required by a LEED project and to streamline the application and certification process.Min 1 principal participant of the project team must be a LEED Accredited Professional with a specialty appropriate for the project.LEED AP must have credential at the time of the certification review.
87
Regional Priority (RP)
4pt
88
CRegional Priority

4pt		to provide an incentive for the achievement of credits that address geographically specific environmental, social, and public health priorities.There are total 6 regional credits available for each location on USGBC.
Project team can choose max 4.		USGBC chapters and LEED International Roundtable

Such roof requires more structural support due to weight of soil and water. It increases costs and raw material consumption.
Increased Ventilation.
Increases energy demand. Best works in mild climates.
Refrigerant Selection.
Some refrigerants increase energy consumption.
Daylight Thermal Issues.
Can affect temperatures, implementation of shade devices, overhangs, landscape features, opening sizes.
Highly Reflective Roofs.
High SRI can be a disadvantage in cold climates.
