Next month Andrea Love and Jim Collins will present at the Tradeline: Research Facilities Conference in Boston. Will you be there?
Session Title: The Sustainability Advantage for Facility Design, Infrastructure, and Operations Costs
Presentation: Thursday, May 9, 11:15 am – 12:10 pm | Friday, May 10, 8:05 am – 9:00 am
Don’t overlook the big cost-saving opportunities that sustainability offers for research facility design and construction, on top of what “going green” does to reduce energy use for the whole facility lifecycle. Jim Collins and Andrea Love demonstrate how to stick with sustainability as a main, integrated project driver and reap the benefits of a higher-value, better-performing science building for the long term. They illustrate project cost allocation and cost management strategies for multiple systems, and they profile savings resulting from sustainable decisions on envelope, shading, MEP equipment size reduction, radiant systems, lighting strategies, and reduced floor-to-floor heights.
Speakers:
James H. Collins, Jr. FAIA, LEED AP, President
