Shifting the Focus of Green Building Rating Systems: A Structural Engineering Assessment of Existing Systems Including Building Life Cycle Considerations
2015
Proceedings of the 2015 (6th) International Conference on Engineering, Project, and Production Management
unpublished
The incorporation of sustainability principles into structural engineering design of buildings has been poorly conducted. Numerous Green Building Ratings Systems (GBRS) exist to attempt to improve this. These systems have focused largely on Operational Energy (OE) efficiencies and management aspects to attain high assessment scores. Previous research has identified this focus to be inconsistent with published data in comparison with the overall Building Life Cycle (BLC) impacts. The
