Does everything at the end of a building's life need to end? New construction and renovation projects continue to deplete vast quantities of resources, many of which go to waste. It doesn't have to be this way. You can build efficiently with sustainable products, but reusing building materials salvaged from old structures presents another decarbonization opportunity.
Reusing building materials reduces the amount of embodied carbon in our buildings and helps reduce waste from deconstruction. This case study of the Federal Center South in Seattle explores the use of reclaimed timber from a warehouse that previously occupied the site. Presenters discuss reuse strategies and sustainable design approaches used throughout this innovative project.
This course, presented courtesy of AIA California, meets the requirements for continuing education coursework in Zero Net Carbon Design (ZNCD) for California architecture license renewals starting in 2023.
Upon successful completion of a multiple-choice quiz, a Certificate of Completion will be available for download and can be used to verify your licensure requirements.
