John C. Huang, Ph.D., PE From green cars to green buildings, building "green" has gathered tremendous momentum around the world in recent years as a result of increased awareness of global warming and record-high prices of natural resources. The goal of building "green" for the construction industry is to reduce the life cycle cost of buildings while maximizing health and environmental performance. This webinar covers 75 green design strategies in 13 areas of construction, and presents several examples of completed green building projects. The green building strategies provided in this course are applicable to various types of construction, from commercial to residential. In addition, students will learn about the LEED Rating System, a nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high-performance green buildings. This course is intended to help architects, engineers, contractors, and building owners to understand all aspects of green building, from conservation of natural resources to wise use of energy, improvement of air quality to the development of livable communities. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of course materials. All quiz questions are reviewed during the webinar. You are guaranteed to pass this quiz.
