  1. The Role of Compact Storage in Green Building Design • Program No.: CSGBD • Provider Name: Spacesaver Corporation • Provider No.: J197

  2. Best Practices Statement This program is registered with the AIA/CES for continuing professional education. As such, it does not include any content that may be deemed or construed to be an approval or endorsement by the AIA or any material of construction or any method or manner of handling, using, distributing or dealing in any material or product. Questions related to specific materials, methods, and/or services will be addressed at the conclusion of this presentation.

  3. Seminar Goals: • Define common “green” terms. • Understand motives for green buildings. • Describe role of the U.S. Green Building Council & LEED. • List ways you & compact storage can support green building goals and possibly contribute to LEED credits. • Things to look for in a compact storage equipment supplier.

  4. What is “Green” or “Sustainable” Design? Design and construction practices that significantly reduce or eliminate the negative impact of buildings on the environment and occupants.

  5. What is the “LEED®” Green Building Rating System? Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design® A leading-edge system for designing, constructing, operating and certifying the world’s greenest buildings. - USGBC Buildings are LEED certified.People are LEED accredited (Accredited Professional).Products are NOT LEED certified or accredited.

  6. Planet People Profit Motives for Green Building Design LEED

  7. What are your motives for green building design? ?

  8. The Role of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) USGBC’s CORE PURPOSE: “…transform the way buildings and communities are designed, built and operated, enabling an environmentally and socially responsible, healthy, and prosperous environment that improves the quality of life.” www.usgbc.org

  9. LEED® Products LEED covers many different types of buildings and construction. These are covered under the following LEED products: LEED - NC: LEED for New Construction and Major Renovations/Additions (released in 2000) LEED - EB: LEED for Existing Buildings (Winter 2004) LEED - CI: LEED for Commercial Interiors (Winter 2004) LEED - CS: LEED for Core and Shell (2005) LEED - H: LEED for Homes (2006)

  10. LEED-NC Rating System Categories • Sustainable Sites (8 cr.,14 pts.) • Water Efficiency (3 cr.,5 pts.) • Energy & Atmosphere (6 cr.,17 pts.) • Materials and Resources (7 cr.,13 pts.) • Indoor Environmental Quality (8 cr.,15 pts.) • Innovation & Design Process (2 cr.,5 pts.)

  11. 4 Levels of LEED Certification (Maximum score for LEED-NC is 69 points.) • LEED Platinum (min. of 52) • LEED Gold (min. of 39) • LEED Silver (min. of 33) • LEED Certified (min. of 26)

  12. Ways you & compact storage can support green building goals and possibly contribute to LEED credits. • Understand the LEED process. • List the LEED credits that compact storage can help contribute to.

  13. LEED Categories Affected by Compact Storage: • Sustainable Sites • Water Efficiency • Energy & Atmosphere • Materials and Resources • Indoor Environmental Quality • Innovation in Design

  14. Disappearing Green Space

  15. Category 1: Sustainable Sites - Credit 5 Site Development Credit 5.1 Protect or Restore Habitat (1 point) Intent: Conserve existing natural areas and restore damaged areas to provide habitat and promote biodiversity. Credit 5.2 Maximize Open Space (1 point) Intent: Provide a high ratio of open space to development footprint to promote biodiversity.

  16. High-density mobile storage may help to reduce building size, thus reduce development footprint and maximize open space. Conventional Storage High-Density Storage

  17. Storage space saved: 648 sq. ft. % Storage space saved: 50% Museum Art Storage Project

  18. University Library Project

  19. Museum Project

  20. Category 3: Energy & Atmosphere - Credit 1 Optimize Energy Performance • Intent: • Achieve increasing levels of energy performance above the baseline in the prerequisite standard to reduce environmental impacts associated with excessive energy use. • Credit 1 (a max. of 10 points based on efficiency)

  21. Reduce Energy Demand: Smaller buildings consume less energy for a lifetime. Conventional Storage High-Density Storage

  22. Category 4: Materials & Resources – Credit 1 Building Reuse • Intent: • Extend the life cycle of existing building stock, conserve resources, retain cultural resources, reduce waste and reduce environmental impacts of new buildings as they relate to materials manufacturing and transport. • Credit 1 (up to 3 points based on % reused)

  23. Building Reuse: High-density mobile storage aids adaptive reuse of existing buildings by allowing the shell to be retained. Conventional Storage High-Density Storage

  24. Television Station Project

  25. Art Museum Project

  26. Art Museum Project

  27. Category 4: Materials & Resources - Credit 3 Materials Reuse • Intent: • Reuse building materials and products in order to reduce demand for virgin materials and to reduce waste, thereby reducing impacts associated with the extraction and processing of virgin resources. • Credit 3.1 (1 point for 5%+) • Credit 3.2 (1 point for 10%+)

  28. Category 4: Materials & Resources - Credit 4 Recycled Content Intent: Increase demand for building products that incorporate recycled content materials, therefore reducing the impacts resulting from extraction and processing of new virgin materials. Credit 4.1 & 4.2 ( 1 point for 10%+ & 2 for 20%+ )

  29. Public Library Project - LEED Case Study Recycled Content:

  30. Government Building – LEED Case Study Recycled Content:

  31. Central File Room: Powered HR Dept.: Manual Government Building – LEED Case Study Recycled Content:

  32. Category 4: Materials & Resources - Credit 5 Regional Materials • Intent: • Increase demand for building materials and products that are extracted and manufactured within the region (within 500 miles), thereby supporting the use of indigenous resources and reducing the environmental impacts resulting from transportation. • Credit 5.1 (1 point for 10%+ extracted, processed & manufactured regionally) • Credit 5.2 (1 point for 20%+ extracted, processed & manufactured regionally)

  33. Category 4: Materials & Resources - Credit 7 Certified Wood • Intent: • Encourage environmentally responsible forest management. • Credit 7 (1 point)

  34. Category 5: Indoor Environmental Quality Credit 4 Low-Emitting Materials • Intent: • Reduce the quantity of indoor air contaminants that are odorous, irritating and/or harmful to the comfort and well-being of installers and occupants. • Credit 4.1 Adhesives and Sealants(1 point) • Credit 4.2 Paints and Coatings(1 point) • Credit 4.4 Composite Wood & Agrifiber Products (1 point)

  35. Category 5: Indoor Environmental Quality Credit 8 Daylight and Views • Intent: • Provide for the building occupants a connection between indoor spaces and the outdoors through the introduction of daylight and views into the regularly occupied areas of the building. • Credit 8.1 Daylight 75% of Spaces (1 point) • Credit 8.2 Views for 90% of Spaces (1 point)

  36. Public Library Project - LEED Case Study Views for 90% of Spaces

  37. Category 6: Innovation & Design Process Credit 1 Innovation in Design Intent: To provide design team and projects the opportunity to be awarded points for exceptional performance above the requirements…and/or innovative performance in Green Building categories not addressed by this Rating System. Credits 1 (up to 4 points)

  38. Category 6: Innovation & Design Process Credit 2 LEED Accredited Professional Intent: To support and encourage the design integration required by a LEED-NC green building project and to streamline the application and certification process. Credit 2 LEED AP on project team (1 point)

  39. Things to look for in a storage system manufacturer: • Key Components of Green Manufacturing • Lean manufacturing • Recycled content • Recycling • Low-emitting materials • Flexible, reusable products • Employee health & safety

  40. Seminar Goals: • Define common “green” terms. • Understand motives for green buildings. • Describe role of the U.S. Green Building Council & LEED. • List ways you & compact storage can support green building goals and possibly contribute to LEED credits. • Things to look for in a compact storage equipment supplier.
