Why Certify? While LEED Rating Systems can be useful just as tools for building professionals, there are many reasons why LEED certification is an asset

Commitment to environment issue is recognized.Receive third party validation of achievement.Qualify for growing array of state & local government initiatives.

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)General procedure to achieve LEED certification areRegistering with the IGBC Use resources provided by IGBC Design the home to meet the rating criteria Precertification documentation should be submitted Design documentation should be submitted to IGBC

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED).Submitted documents will be reviewed by IGBC.Construction documentation should be submitted to IGBC based on IGBC first review comments.Review of documents by IGBC/ Third party assessors Award of LEED certification by IGBC

OVERVIEW

CASE STUDYTelus Building, Vancouver, British ColumbiaBuilding Type: Office Approximate gross area: 12,075 m2Number of floors above ground: 8Year of completion: 2000

Telus Building Project

Telus Building ProjectMain Green Features of the projectThe client (Telus) and the architects developed a strategic green option to recycle/reuse the entire building.Allows opportunities for natural ventilation in summer and acts as a warm buffer zone in winter

Telus Building ProjectMain Green Features of the projectRaised access floor provides flexibility for upgrading mechanical and electrical systems. The building has bicycle storage; change rooms and showers.The building uses PV powered fans to assist the natural ventilation. Interior light shelves extend the natural daylight into the interior spaces. The primary heating is to reuse waste heat from the existing refrigeration plant within the same complex.
