Pre-construction

• Programming – the right decisions made in the

beginning saves money in the end.

• Cost Reconciliation – Evaluating alternative systems &

materials.

• Diligent documentation of existing conditions (laser

scanning).

• Best approach for the client and the overall success of

the project.

Hands on senior level team members committed

to the project - from beginning to end.

Construction Administration

• Responsiveness: Knowledge of the project

• Maintaining design intent and construction quality

Typical Approach: Traditional construction methods = larger, and larger photovoltaic arrays…

Typical Results:NZEB’s range widely in energy use intensity…

94 kbtu/ft2/yr. [ ≈1 PV panel required per 12 ft2 of program area ]

For reference, a typical PV panel is roughly 18ft2


Holistic Approach: Integrated Design Process…

Holistic Results:

40 kbtu/ft2/yr. [ ≈1 PV panel required per 29 ft2 of program area ]
