Using an integrated, building systems perspective, it provides you with the necessary information on what to do, where to turn, what to suggest, and how to interact productively with other members of the design team. From planning to operation and maintenance of a facility, information is provided at each stage of the building process, with an emphasis on teamwork and close coordination among interested parties.

This fifth edition of the ASHRAE GreenGuide is a user-friendly reference that covers almost every topic that should be considered in green-building design. The GreenTips in this edition highlight techniques, processes, measures, or special systems in a concise, often bulleted format. Furthermore, information is provided in dual units - Inch-Pound (I-P) and International System (SI) - to ensure that the content is applicable globally. References and resources are listed at the end of each chapter for easy reference.
