Assignment
Resources: LEED Presentation; Energy Usage Calculation spreadsheet
Read the LEED Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation to gain an understanding of the standard for green architecture.
Select the design of a home that uses standard architectural design or nonrenewable, inefficient energy guidelines.
Complete the Energy Usage Calculation spreadsheet. Use the Energy Usage Calculation spreadsheet to complete the following:
• Determine the most efficient alternative energy design that would reduce the energy output through built-in calculation.
• Compare the energy usage in the original to the new design of the chosen home.
Redesign your chosen building to achieve a certified, silver, or gold level of LEEDcertification.
Prepare a 10- to 12-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation and include the following:
• Outline your idea for an alternative energy design that includes LEED architecture.
• Determine the most energy-efficient design or alternative energy for the home or building you have chosen.
• Describe how you might integrate sustainable energy sources and technologies into the design.
• Report the energy savings of the new design.
• Compare actions you might take in daily activities at home, when commuting, and to work to reduce the energy you consume.
