Editor's Notes
- #2 Good morning, this is my preliminary LEED assessment for my Design solution for the Flat Top Block Development. LEED is the second most widely use Sustainability Assessment Matrix after BREAAM and is developed by the US Green Building Council. This assessment outlines what actions may be required to achieve LEEDs highest Award -Platinum -however the financial cost and perhaps suitability of some of the measures have not been fully examined.
- #3 The assesment is divided into a number of sections the first being -
- #4 Erosion control-Prevent loss of soil during construction in accordance with EPA requirements Sediment control tanks for any pumped water, control diirect run off from site
- #5 Site selection –A desktop study to be carried out to show that the site does not fall under the following categories - prime farmland, Undeveloped land Prone to flooding, Identified wildlife habitat, with 100 ft wetlands, or 50ft waterbody supporting fish. None of the above.
- #6 Density and Community connection- Another desktop study to demostrate that the site is a Previously developed site,- within ½ mile of residential area more than 10 units/ acre.- Yes +within ½ mile of at least 10 basic services- St Stephens Green Shopping Centre.
- #7 Brownfield redevelopment – This section rewards the Rehabilitation of contaminated site- Carry out a ASTM Phase 2 environmental assessment to identify any contaminants.
- #8 Public Transport – Demonstrate that the site is Located within ½ a mile of a light rail station- Yes LUAS St Stephens Green. – Dimensioned site plan.
- #9 Bicycle storage – Provide secure bicycle storage for 15% of building population – 20 spaces.
- #10 Low emissions vehicles- Parking for fuel efficient/ low emissions 5% total 1 space –Difficulty with definition of eco car – Refers to American standards.
- #11 Parking capacity- Do not provide any new parking as a consequence of the development and promote car sharing- subject to DCC approval.
- #12 Restore Habitat- Restore 50% site to native or adapted planting- Not achievable in this tight urban site
- #13 Maximize open space- Exceed DCC open space requirements by 25%- not achievable.
- #14 New development designed and constructed so as to not increase runoff and capture and treat 90% of runoff- Harvesting and petrol interceptor for paving drainage.
- #15 Heat Island- Non Roof Addresses materials absorbing and re-transmitting heat Light coloured paving (Solar reflective index of 29%) for 50% of site hardscape and sedium green roof to all roof areas to be used to address this problem
- #16 Light Pollution Reduction – Reduce light pollution through automatic control of external and internal lighting – Not practical in residential situation.
- #17 Reduce water use by 20% compared to baseline Low flush toilets, low flow taps and showers.
- #18 Use low maintenance planting using no irrigation.
- #19 Reduce water usage for building sewage by 50% by using low flush toilets and rainwater harvesting.
- #20 This is an exempliminary credit for achieving an overall 40% reduction in water use this will be achieved through the technologies mentioned above
- #21 A Commissioning agent is to be appointed to instigate and certify commissioning
- #22 Establish a minimum level of Energy performance for the proposed building systems. In accordance with ASHREA/ IESNA 90.1-2004
- #23 Zero CFC refrigerants- phased out under the Montreal protocol in EU.
- #24 Increase building performance above baseline calculated using whole building simulation – ASHRAE Appendix G Reduce energy by 44%, 81% reduction achieved under DEEP.
- #25 13% buildings energy by renewable, - Solar panels supply 18.8%
- #26 Appoint Commissioning Agent early on in the design stage
- #27 Do not use refrigerants i.e. No AC or System Cooling
- #28 Not practical Residential Situation
- #29 Provide at least 35% of Electrical power through renewable sources by a 2- year renewable energy contract – Not available Ireland.
- #30 Central recycling and segregated waste area to be provided in an easily accessible area on site, eastern side of site beside the vehicular entrance.
- #31 Retain 75% of building fabric (excluding doors and windows), all kept apart from front and back wall 90% retained.
- #32 Recycle or salvage 50% non hazardous construction waste, implement waste management Plan .
- #33 Reuse or salvage 5% of materials for the project based on costs – Doors, architraves,skirtings and Asphalt.
- #34 Post consumer + ½ pre-consumer waste 20% - Cellulose- paper 80% ,Fermacel 100%l- Gypsum, Internal doors from USA, Asphalt 90%, Timber framing say 10%. Ecocem 50% blastfurnace slag.
- #35 Materials from within 500 miles Cellulose, Fermacell, windows, Railings, balconies, concrete, Fiber Cement Cladding.
- #36 Over 50% of the wood used will be from certified sources (Forest Stewarts Council) check Cuilte. Overall less than Water conservation.
- #37 Mechanical Ventilation to be designed for acceptable Indoor Air Quality – ASHRAE sections 4 through 7 62.1-2004
- #38 No smoking in common area or within 25 feet of entrances.
- #39 Notachievable in a Residential situation
- #40 Ventilation 30% above ASHRAE baseline values.
- #41 Establish and implement an Indoor Air Quality management plan during construction and Air test prior to occupancy in accordance with ASHRAE 52.2
- #42 Limit VOCs in accordance with LEED Table 1- and eliminate urea formaldehyde from wood products.
- #43 Multi point lighting control for individual levels.
- #44 Design so year round comfort – Efficient fabric and temperature controls.
- #45 Instigate a survey among Resident survey post occupancy to verify thermal comfort .
- #46 All habitable spaces with exterior views.
- #47 All habitable spaces with exterior views.
- #48 Appoint an accredited LEED professional.
- #49 Appoint an accredited LEED professional.
