 Track 1 - Capital Ideas | Track 2 - Sustainability | Track 3 - Resource Management | Track 4 - Special Topic | Track 5 - In-depth Sessions Track 4 - Special Topic (ST) Project Clean "Green"
Rutgers University has done a review of seven major manufacturers' "green" products. Criteria reviewed included: Green Seal certification, HMIS and NFPA health ratings, bio-based content, ingredients, chemical dispensing systems, training programs and product performance. The due diligence put forth by Rutgers will aid other institutions in their quest to go "green".
Modeling (BIM)
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the evolution of two-dimensional drawings into three dimensional virtual building models embedded with critical intelligent information about the elements of the design. Now, take that 3D model and add a fourth dimension - time, and a fifth dimension - cost. Join us for a practical demonstration of how this revolutionary project delivery method is interconnecting project goals for performance, sustainability, energy usage, and cost/schedule control. How SUNY Fredonia Became Plug-Load Energy $mart
The proliferation of personal computers and small electrical equipment contribute to make plug-loads a major contributor to the growth in energy costs for administration buildings, residence halls, laboratories and classrooms. SUNY Fredonia will share their experiences in implementing programs and policies targeting computers, copiers, printers, refrigerators, washing machines, vending machines, task lights and other plug-load equipment on campus. Responsible Use of Refrigerants in HVAC
The Montreal Protocol, now in its 20 th year, targeted ozone depleting substances by banning CFC refrigerants in developed countries and by establishing phase-out schedules for all HCFC refrigerants. To meet this challenge, the HVAC industry has turned to non-chlorine HFC or "natural" refrigerants. This session will help concerned users make responsible choices in their present and future refrigerant decisions. Presentation - Part 1 (pdf)
Over the past two years, Dickinson College has accelerated into the world of sustainability both operationally and educationally. This presentation will focus on major new College-wide initiatives, methods for achieving student buy-in and ways to integrate the College's mission and academic programs with Campus Operations initiatives. Sustained Leadership in Difficult Times
This presentation will provide participants with strategies to gain support for their concepts and projects, to engage staff members and to inspire people to adjust and persevere. "green" decisions for capital improvements
This presentation will demonstrate that going green does not have to break the bank for colleges and universities with modest budgets. The focus will be on improvements to existing buildings, although there will be some anecdotal review of new buildings. Handouts will include the materials from the presentation, plus supporting evidence from other experiences. |
