Description

Achieving a sustainable building is not just a matter of design and construction: what happens once the building is occupied is absolutely critical. This book shows how the choices designers; developers and building users make impact on sustainability over the life span of the building. The authors show how a holistic approach considering costs; energy use; environmental impact; global warming potential as well as items which a usually disregarded such as finishes; furniture and appliances is needed to achieve best practice.
