Abstract/Notes HOW TO TURN THE PROMISE OF SUSTAINABILITY INTO REALITY

In the tradition of the bestselling classic Building Construction Illustrated, this new book from Francis D.K. Ching and Ian M. Shapiro explains the fundamental issues of sustainable design and construction in a beautifully illustrated format.

Approaching design from the outside to the inside of a building, the book covers broad aspects of sustainability, providing a framework and detailed strategies for designing buildings that are substantively green. It explains why we need to build green, the theories behind it, and new directions in the industry. Green Building Illustrated includes comprehensive discussion of vital topics such as site selection, passive design using building shape, water conservation, ventilation and indoor air quality, heating and cooling, and minimum-impact materials. Throughout, Ching’s signature line drawings clearly and helpfully illustrate each topic.

Grounded in the fundamentals of building science and integrated design, the book covers a broad set of emerging but proven tools with which to design green buildings.

Comprehensive, highly practical, and beautifully presented, Green Building Illustrated is a must-have resource that equips students and practitioners with the latest developments and strategies in this growing and vital field.
