CAD 210L - Green Building Design Lab (1)

Understanding the concepts of green building is essential for anyone in the architecture/construction/alternative energy industry. Many municipalities and non-profit organizations have developed rating systems to quantify the level of green building strategies used in construction projects. The best-known rating system is LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design). In this hands-on course, the LEED green building rating system, design strategies, and building construction techniques for meeting those regulations will be incorporated into the students commercial and residential designs.
