520 |a Learn how to integrate green strategies into your building design This practical handbook provides rill essential introduction to green design strategies helping you to understand how to save energy, water, and material resources. 
520 |a It provides Ore information required to make judgments about which strategy to use and inclucles tools to enable you to incorporate the chosen strategy during tire early stages of design. 
520 |a Each of the 42 selected environmental strategies includes a description of principle and concept, step by step procedures for integrating the strategy, annotated design tables and charts, key issues to he aware of when implementing the strategy, and references to further resources. Over 500 sketches and colour photos illustrate concepts and applications. 
520 |a In this second edition, 10 new Case studies are included to show successful implementation of green strategies and assessments of budding performance Site Analysis and Glazing strategies have been added and new tables and updated drawings simplify the application of concepts, preliminary system sizing, and integration of strategies. 
520 |a Using real building projects as a guide, designers will be able to make informed choices about the most competitive and effective way to design a green building. --Book Jacket.
