Why Building Products?
10%-40% of building emissions are embodied in materials Building materials impact indoor air quality Maintenance and durability have
operational impacts

Challenges
Balancing sustainability goals with space and cost limitations Uniqueness of each project
![Page 14: Sustainable Building Design - ACGOV.org · Sustainable Building Design Nicole Gaetjens Green Purchasing Roundtable May 20, 2015. Background h Center, LEED Platinum. Alameda County](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051511/6017755bb11cf36b1077d2c0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Strategies for Success
Describe sustainability goals as early as possible in design process Identify critical times in design process to
consult Sustainability Program Define performance criteria, but allow
designers to meet goals creatively

Alameda County Case Study
![Page 16: Sustainable Building Design - ACGOV.org · Sustainable Building Design Nicole Gaetjens Green Purchasing Roundtable May 20, 2015. Background h Center, LEED Platinum.

How We Did It
Convene key stakeholders Produced specifications in several
formats:▫ Checklist – easy reference during initial
design▫ Design Narratives– requirements &
recommended best practices Continuous iteration from lessons learned
after each project
