Sustainable Building Range
5
"Energy Efficiency"
  • Energy Efficiency


  • Exceed Title 24 Chapter 6 by 20%.


  • Renewable Energy Generation



    •    0%         5%       10%      15%     20%    25%   30%
6
Zero Initiative
  • Zero to landfill - divert 100% waste from landfill to recycling center
  • Zero runoff – contained within site, stored and recharge of water table
  • Zero Chrome
  • California climate action registry
  • Zero carbon footprint



7
Uncertainty increases Risk and Cost
  • Three phases in development
  • Design
  • Construction
  • Operational and Maintenance


8
Building in a Box
  • Modular Buildings – not LEED certified yet
9
Streamline fees and reduce timeline
  • Architectural Fees and contract terms are fixed and are sent as part of the SOQ’s – No negotiation
  • Commissioning Fees – Fixed
  • LEED fees – Fixed
  • Value Engineering Fees - Fixed
10
LEED™ Fees
11
Commissioning Fees
12
Reduce design changes
  • Shared governance - understand what the client wants.
  • Most users cannot read construction dwgs
  • Visualization – Fly through
  • Studio E7 Students perform the simulations.
  • Integrated Design Charettes includes users design team, commissioning agent,
  • Value Engineering, at schematic design



13
Global Warming and cost reduction
  • Concrete has gone up by 40%
    • 8% of CO2 emissions is in manufacture of cement
    • Main cost is Portland cement
    • High volume flyash
    • Bulk procurement
  • Reduce the need of painting by putting pezzoline in the cement to give it color
  • Reduce the need for ceilings expose services



14
Delivery method
  • Design build
    • Materials increase is time dependant
    • Plan Check DSA have taken typically 6 to 9 months.
    • Partnership with DSA that allows partial approval as foundation are being laid the design is being finalized.  Saves time
    • Instead of one building at a time, bid quadrants of the site.
15
Collaboration
  • MOU with Division of State Architect
  • Over 10 Billion in DSA
  • Prioritize building
  • Partnership with LAUSD and City to ensure that bids etc do not occur on the same day
  • USGBC formulating LEED for Campuses
  • Collaboration with Europeans first LEED / BREAM building in the world




16
Cost estimates
  • 4 cost estimates are independalely performed
    • Designers
    • Project Manager
    • Program Manager
    • Cost Consultant.
  • The 4 are analyzed and the largest is generally selected.
17
Packaging projects
  • Use the same design of a classroom building for another classroom building, i.e. site adapt.
  • Reduce design time, construction cost and approval process
  • Package multiple projects
18
Procurement Strategies
  • Reduce the subcontractors risk on commodities and Insurance
  • Furniture – showroom for selection
  • Carpet –100% recycled
  • Other floor covering – recycled material
  • Electric Vehicles – Solar powered
  • Ceiling Tiles – high recycled content
  • Paint – Zero VOC’s
  • Light fixtures – T5 lamps
  • Builders loss insurance, Workers Comp Insurance, Environmental Insurance

20
Construction
  • Encourage Contractors to bid, outreach program,
  • Calcon Expo August 17th expect 1000 attendees.
  • Contractors prebid meeting
  • LEED requirements
  • Commissioning Requirements
  • Contractors LEED and Commissioning Kick off meeting


21
Photovoltaic systems
  • Providing 1 megawatt on each of the nine campuses, total of 9 megawatt.
  • Paid for by the electricity generated at the same cost as dirty power for a period of 20 years
  • Provider receives tax credits at 30%, rapid depreciation, state incentives for solar system.



22
Pierce College
PV installation -200 KW system
23
West College
Garage with PV solar farm
24
Central Plant
  • Design, build operate maintain and finance
  • The cost of the plant is paid for by the operational savings
  • Low interest rates by forming a non-profit 501 c3 rates of 4% compared to commercial rates of 9 – 10%
  • Must have renewable technology


25
Examples of Innovation – LumiWall
(Sharp)
  • Innovative LumiWall combines:
  • Thin film PV
    • High-efficiency LED lights
    • Integrated battery
  • Complete modular lighting panel
    • Transparent during the day
    • Luminescent at night.
