3 Types of Site

Back 6

1) Greenfield
A piece of previously undeveloped land, in a city or rural area, either currently used for agriculture or landscape design, or just left to nature.
2) Brownfield
Abandoned or underused industrial and commercial facilities available for re-use. Expansion or redevelopment of such a facility may be complicated by real or perceived environmental contamination.
3) Previously Developed Infill

How to reduce Heat Island Effect in a Non-Roof space

Back 7

1) Do NOT use large asphalt
2) For 50% of the Hard Surface either:
a. Pave w/ material of the Required Solar Reflectance Index(SRI) of 29
b. Shading (last within 5 yrs)
c. Use Open Grid Pavement
d. Cover a min of 50% of the parking lot with structures that have a roof of the Required SRI of 29

Front 8

Pervious Concrete

Back 8

1) Let water go through the concrete
2) Recommended be contained with a curb
3) Avoid freeze thaw, it will freeze the gravel rather than paving
4) Determined by climate's temperature, rainfall and the porosity of the soil.

Front 9

Construction of Pervious Concrete

Back 9

1) Poured mix were pretty dry
2) Screen & compact with roller
3) Tamp to finish and edge by tamping to avoid creating cement cream
4) cover with plastic

Front 10

How to reduce Heat Island Effect for Roof

Back 10

1) Use material w/ a high SRI>29 (white membrane or metal)
2) Use a Green Roof
3) Combine these two

Light Pollution

Back 11

Interior:
1) Light doesn't exit from window
2) Lighting automatically turnd off when everyone leaves the building.
Exterior:
Light areas only for safty and comfort

Front 12

Water Efficiency:
5 stratages for Reduce potable water consumption for irrgation:

Back 12

1) Plant species factor (xeriscaping)
2) Irrigation Efficiency
3) Captured Rainwater
4) Recycled waste water (gray water / black water)
5) Water treated and conveyed to public agency

Front 13

4 types of water:

Back 13

1) Portable water: Drinkable
2) Gray water: dishwater etc.
3) Black water: polluted
4) Storm water

Xeriscaping:

Back 14

Minimizing the need for water uses
* <Soil analysis; Practical turf areas; Appropriate plant selection; Efficient irrigation; use of mulches>
* <Functions v.s.Water Efficiency v.s. Invasive plants>
