Improving Sustainability of Buildings Through a Performance-Based Design Approach: Preprint

Building Technologies and Science Center

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper

Abstract

The design of most buildings is typically driven by budget, time, safety, and energy codes, producing buildings that just meet these minimum criteria. To achieve better or even exceptional energy performance in buildings, the design team needs to work with the building owner and others involved in the building process toward a focused energy performance goal. This paper describes theperformance-based design process for buildings and benefits of this approach.
