CEE 5330 - Design for Sustainable Buildings and Infrastructure
Credits: 3
Covers basic methods of sustainable building and environmental design to assure minimal and efficient resource and energy use. Students undertake a design project and work to integrate green strategies into their proposal. Covers technical methods for assessing predictive resource use, including energy modeling, water balance calculations, daylight modeling, and energy generation estimations. Emphasis is placed on passive, non-mechanical building systems. Defining occupant comfort as a balance of multiple factors is addressed, as well as methods for effective use of water management and land use. Sustainable infrastructure will be addressed, including integrated storm water management, water quality and runoff management, and passive water systems. The USGBC’s LEED system will be specifically addressed.
