Life-Cycle Assessment of Wood in Residential and Commercial Construction

Outline

Green building guidelines, standards, and policyCORRIM’s effort to document wood as green based on product and building life-cycle studiesExample of a whole building and wall assembly life-cycle studies comparing wood to steel and concrete SummaryBenefits to using wood products for green building

Green Building Guidelines, Standards, and Policy

Examples of green building guidelines, certification, and assessment:– LEED (Leadership in Energy and

Environmental Design)– Green Globes (Green Building Initiative)– NAHB Model Green Home Building Guidelines– BEES (Building for Environmental and

Economic Sustainability)

Examples of Green Building to Certification Standards

Kelley Engineering Center Oregon State University

Green Globes LEED

Washington State Law Mandates Green Building April 21, 2005 Olympia, Washington Washington's Gov. Christine Gregoire signed the high performance green buildings bill into law which, according to the governor'soffice, makes Washington the first state to require that new public buildings meet "green building" standards of energy efficiency, water conservation and other environmental standards.

Standard follows LEED for buildings greater than $5 million.

U. S. Government Agencies go to Environmentally Preferable Purchasing (EPP)—USDOE, USDA, others….– Bio-based products– Fuel products

Nations (161) sign Kyoto Protocol to limit CO2 emissionsU.S. government proposes to reduce

“carbon intensity”Governors of seven NE States agree to

reduce CO2 emissions and propose carbon credit exchangeGovernors of three Western States sign

Global Warming Initiative

NAHB─How to Get Green

Green Building Guidelines say to “incorporate environmental issues into project’s decision-making process.”Green Building Guidelines say to base “the selection of building material on their environmental impact.”

Guidelines—Use Life Cycle Analyses to Assess Projects

Raw Material

Product Manufacture

Maintenance & Operation

Home Demolition

Product Reuse

Home Building Process

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

To Determine Whether a Material or Home is Green

Is it a renewable resource?Does it use resource efficient material?Does environmental data such as energy consumption and CO2 emissions exist for material (use Life-Cycle Inventory)?Is Life-Cycle Analysis (LCA) used to analyze product or buildingAre there comparisons of environmental impacts to select best material, building design, wall assembly, etc.?

Demonstrating Wood is a Green Building Material

CORRIM

Easy to say but can it be proved!

Need for Unbiased, Sound Environmental Data

CORRIM

Consortium for Research on Renewable Industrial Materials

National effort to document the environmental performance of all wood products.

CORRIM, Inc.

A non-profit corporation formed by 15 research institutions to conduct life-cycle inventory (LCI) and life-cycle assessment (LCA) studies of wood products.

CORRIM

CORRIM’S Purpose

To develop a public database and models of environmental performance measures over the life cycles of all wood productsTo examine a range of management, product, and process alternatives to identify strategies to improve environmental performance of wood products and residential buildings

CORRIM’s Research Protocol

CORRIM’s research follows Life-Cycle Inventory (LCI) and Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) international protocol of ISO 14040s Standards

CORRIM to complete Phase 2 research on wood products this summer, it expands upon the initial study:– Extends source location of forest resources

to other regions – Assess home building in other regions– Assess low-rise, multi-family home buildings– Extend wood products to non-structural

products such as hardwood flooring and MDF– Full product LCI’s and LCA’s– Component-by-component construction

analyses of walls, floors, roofs and assemblies.

CORRIM’s Expanded Effort

Wood is Green—Study validates the environmental friendliness of wood compared to other common structural building materials.Material Selection—Study provides ways to enhance environmental performance of buildings through material selection and design.Publicly available database—Study provides environmental data on structural wood products.

Summary

Benefits to Using Wood Products

Wood is a green building material in comparison to other materials– Data is available in U.S. LCI Database;

however, for your use it will likely be by using building guidelines, standards and design assessment software (i.e., AthenaTM, BEES, Bio-based EPP, and eventually LEED and Green Globes)

Benefits to Using Wood Products

Wood is sustainable and renewable whether for forest, products, or fuelWood is resource efficientWood can store carbon in forest, products, and landfills removing it from the atmosphere as CO2 −reducing global warming

Sustainable ConstructionTurner Construction Company

• Brief overview of Turner Green Building Experience• Brief overview of Turner Green Commitments• Recycling Construction on Every Job - Making it work. • How does the leading general builder in the US implement such

a process on an average of 1500 projects per year across 40 Business Units throughout the country?

• How does capacity vary and what different responses are successful in different areas.

• Where can it work?• Where is it still an unrealized goal?• Implementation of policy and procedures, progress and

pushback

I would like to speak about:

Turner Green Building Experience

Since Turner Green Building Experience 1995• Over 150 Projects with Green Building

Elements Completed or Under Construction• Construction value: Over $10 Billion• Over 42 million sq. ft.• 20 LEED Certified Projects • 50 LEED Registered Projects• Over 110 LEED Accredited Professionals• (and counting…)

Turner’s Commitment to Green

• Recycle Construction Waste on All Projects• Greening our Field Offices• Emerging Green Builders• Online LEED Training• Double LEED Accredited Professionals• Advisory Board• Center of Excellence

Why is this Important?(Hint: its not about chasing LEED points)

• C&D Waste accounts for between 20% and 50% of all waste sent to landfills

• Diverted material can be reused, reducing use of virgin materials

• Potential cost savings to Owner• Potential revenue stream to Hauler• Good for business• Good for the planet

Chapter One – Ignorance is Bliss

• January 2005 – this will be easy• February 2005 – we can’t do that in our market• March 2005 – No more *#%! forms

Early Wins

• New York – Cardella Carting - Already doing it. Just get others to follow.

• Boston – Charles George Trucking – Only game in town. He got it.

• Nashville - Tennessee Waste – Opportunist. Created a market.

• Waste Management – National Firm wanted to serve a big client. Already pretty sophisticated.

Early Setbacks

• Ohio – Duh?

• Texas – too much “wide open space”

• Many other places – Hello?

Pleasant Surprises

• Dallas – A number of green projects gets Management Attention. “Gray Hair” takes over.

• Florida – Ditto. And Ditto. Negotiated rebates.

Innovators

• Ace Waste – market differentiator – committed to green (business model)

• Construction Waste Management – committed to green (environmental model)

Results – Year One

• Turning the Queen Mary BUT

• Continuous Improvement BUT

• Low Hanging Fruit

• All or nothing

Results – Year Two (to date)

• More reporting = less spectacular results BUT

• Standardized reporting now a requirement

• Goal One – complete and accurate reporting

• Goal Two – improve performance

The Future – Are We There Yet?

• NO

What Does the Future Hold?

• Deconstruction

CONSTRUCTION WASTE MANAGEMENT INITIATIVE

Turner Construction CompanyMay ??, 2006

CWMI 2006 - Objectives

REDUCE DIVERT

RECYCLE

• Develop proficiency in rapidly growing “Green Building” market– Approximately 50% of our earnings comes from LEED

projects where construction waste management is a requirement

• Influence local C&D debris handlers by increasing demand for diversion– Several local haulers constantly competing for Turner

contracts

• Earn positive Owner / Public attention– Every little bit helps in Michigan’s competitive market

CWMI 2006 - Benefits

CWMI 2006 - BackgroundSeptember 2004 – Tom Leppert announces Turner’s commitment to sustainability

February 2005 – Turner introduces Construction Waste Management Initiative (CWMI)

March 2005 – Business Units begin reporting

June 2005 – Michigan Green Team issues CWMI Workbook to Business Unit w/ Presentation to PM’s & PX’s

October 2005 – Michigan Green Team partners with Michigan Purchasing to incorporate CWMI language in Subcontracts

February 2006 – Turner Purchasing provides revised hauler Subcontract; Turner Sustainable Construction provides revised Monthly Project Progress Report

CWMI 2006 – Turner’s Mission• Report waste management activity on

ALL projects.• Within 3 years, achieve diversion on

100% of projects.• Within 3 years, achieve

overall diversion rate of 50%.

CWMI 2006 – Michigan’s Mission• Report on 100% of

Michigan Projects• Report monthly • Projects implement

project-specific CWM Plan

• Develop waste hauling market by providing demand for diversion

CWMI 2006 - Procedure

CWMI 2006 – Lessons LearnedDPS Sinai Educational Campus

Learning: • Inexperience resulted in lower

diversion rates & more staff time invested

• Late implementation compromised enforcement

Lesson: Steep learning curve

= Poor planning/implementation

CWMI 2006 – Lessons LearnedMetro Hospital

Learning:• Researched options for

diversion of gypsum wallboard > found vendor

• Maintaining dialogue with hauler and subcontractors

Lesson: Proactive Management

= Successful Diversion (Currently 67%)

CWMI 2006 – Lessons LearnedFord Field Parking Deck

Learning: • Staff transitions resulted in gaps in

communication between project staff.

Lesson: Lack of communication

= Lost Diversion

CWMI 2006 – Future Projects5th Royal Oak

Learning:• Tight site logistics complicate

CWMI implementation• Sharing knowledge assisted

project team with expanded options

Lesson: Proactive Project Staff

+ Green Team Coordination

=Optimized Resources

CWMI 2006 – Future ProjectsHFHS – West Bloomfield

Learning: • Project staff included Green Team from start• Discussing challenges with Architect reduced risk in the

future

Lesson: Proactive Project Staff

+ Green Team Coordination

= Improved Potential for LEED Compliance

CWMI 2006 - Strategies• Contract Compliance

– Include CWMP in all subcontracts– Enforce compliance through

backcharges/fines

• Educate the Workforce– Subcontractor PM’s may not explain

requirements to Foremen / Tradesmen

CWMI 2006 - Strategies• Well-Planned Logistics

– Site Separation vs. Commingled• Site Separation = Greater Diversion• Commingled = Reduced Field Management• Hybrid = Optimal

– Plan for Progress• Be prepared to adapt CWM Plan for changing

site / construction waste

CWMI 2006 - Summary• Set up Site Logistics & CWM Plan• Use available resources• Get everyone on board• Report!!!

Design to Prevent WastePlan for Waste PreventionUse Construction Methods that prevent wastePractice Jobsite Waste Prevention MethodsPurchase to Prevent WasteSalvage, Reuse, Recycle

Construction Waste Management

Design to Prevent Waste– Design with standard sizes– Specify materials that can readily be

disassembled at the end of useful life– Specify durable, non – toxic interior finishes– Design spaces to be flexible– Consider reusing materials

Plan for Waste Prevention– Target specific waste producing practices– Include waste prevention in waste management

plan (Attachment C)– Communicate the waste management plan; at

every meeting, post it and promote it (and the results)

Use Construction Methods that Prevent Waste– Wood Construction; use advanced framing

techniques– Consider off site assembly of components

Practice Jobsite Waste Prevention Methods– Set up central cutting areas– Recycle concrete forms or choose reusable steel

or fiberglass forms– Practice material storage and handling that

prevents loss or damage

Purchase to Prevent Waste– Purchase salvaged, recycled or recycled content

materials and equipment– Deliver only the required amount of material to the

Abstract for Presentation by Tracie Baule-Hall, Development Director at Enable Board of Directors GreeningUSA Member US Green Building Council, Upstate Chapter From A Client’s Perspective…Why Be Green? The mission of Enable is to provide the highest quality of life for children and adults with disabilities. The fundamental concept of green building is to provide the highest quality environment, with conscious decisions and an integrated design approach impacting both internal and external atmospheres. Individuals who receive services through Enable already have physical and developmental disabilities, many of which are compounded by environmental sensitivities and depressed immune systems. By constructing a facility designed with maximum accessibility and special attention to indoor environmental quality, Enable hopes to

enhance the benefits of the therapeutic services provided to individuals with disabilities;

increase the productivity and retention of qualified staff; reduce overall operating expenses through energy and water

conservation; reduce absenteeism for staff and participants

Through adherence to green building practices, and striving for LEED certification, Enable’s 30,000 square foot addition seeks to provide the ideal environment to achieve maximum results from therapeutic services.
