Green guide from Grace Construction Products
Grace Construction Products introduced “Building Green with Grace,” a guide that helps architects and specifiers select products that achieve the prerequisites and points needed to meet the demands of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System. It was introduced at the AIA 2007 National Convention and Design Exposition.
Developed and administered by the United States Green Building Council, the LEED Green Building Rating System is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high-performance green buildings. LEED gives building owners and operators the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their buildings’ performance. The system is designed to promote sustainable sites, energy/water efficiency, recycled materials, indoor environmental quality and innovation in design. In each category, there are prerequisites and criteria for which a project can earn points. “Building Green with Grace” identifies how Grace Products can help a project meet prerequisites and earn points in the LEED-NC (New Construction) Version 2.2 Rating System.
