Sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. These are some of the qualities you can expect from a LEED certified project LEED certification provides independent, third-party verification that a building, home or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at achieving high performance in key areas of human and environmental health.
There are a number of LEED® rating systems available to meet the needs of different building and project types. Each LEED rating system consists of prerequisites and credits. Prerequisites are required elements, or green building strategies that must be included in any LEED certified project. Credits are optional elements, or strategies that projects can elect to pursue to gain points toward LEED certification.
The primary objective is to minimize heat loss by optimizing the thermal performance of the building envelope.
Passive House is Cost Effective A conventional heating system is not needed in a Passive House. This decreases energy bills, saves space and reduces construction costs. By adapting conventional construction materials and techniques, we find that the cost of building a Passive House adds only 5-10% to the total construction cost.
Spray Foam is a chemical product of two materials, isocyanate and polyol resin, which react when mixed with each other and expand up to 30-60 times its liquid form. This expansion produces a high thermal insulating value with virtually no air infiltration.
Firestop is a fire protection system made up of various components used to seal openings and joints in fire-resistance rated wall or floor assemblies. Firestops are designed to restore the fire-resistance of wall or floor assemblies, impeding the spread of fire by filling the openings with fire resistant material.
Insulation refers broadly to a wide variety of material used in a building as insulation. While the majority of insulation in buildings is for thermal purposes, RLI also offers acoustic insulation and fire insulation.
Applying a certification listed fireproofing system to certain structures allows them to have a fire-resistance rating. Items classed as fireproof are resistant in specified circumstances, and may burn or be rendered inoperable by fire exceeding the intensity or duration that it is designed to withstand.
Soundproofing can suppress unwanted indirect sound waves such a reflections that cause echoes and resonances that cause reverberation. Soundproofing can reduce the transmission of unwanted direct sound waves.
