Terms to Know: •Integrative design process •Integrative project team •OPR •BOD •“Simple Box” energy modeling analysis •Water Budget

Standards to Know: •ANSI National Guide 2.0 •AIA’s IPD Guide Rating Systems Included:

•New Construction •EPA’s Target Finder

•Schools •Data Centers •Warehouses and Distribution Centers •Retail •Hospitality •Healthcare

Option 1: Energy Related Systems Path 1: Energy Discovery

1. Establish an energy performance target 2. Perform a preliminary “simple box” energy modeling analysis 3. Explore how to reduce energy loads in the building 4. Assess 2 strategies associated with each of the following: a. Site conditions b. Massing and orientation c. Basic envelope attributes d. Lighting levels e. Thermal comfort ranges f. Plug and process load reductions g. Programmatic and operational parameters

Path 2: Energy Implementation

1. Use IP Worksheet to summarize how integrative approach informed the design through: a. Building and site program b. Building form and geometry c. Building envelope and facade treatment d. Elimination and/or downsizing of building systems

Option 2: Water Related Systems Path 1: Water Discovery

1. Perform preliminary Water Budget analysis 2. Explore how to reduce potable water loads 3. Assess and estimate potential to use 1 non-potable water source to affect 2 water demands a. Indoor water demand b. Outdoor water demand c. Process water demand d. Supply sources

1. Use IP Worksheet to document how analysis informed design a. Plumbing systems b. Sewage conveyance and/or on-site treatment c. Rainwater management d. Landscaping, irrigation and site elements e. Roofing systems f. Building form and geometry
