Residential Green Building Committee Meeting
The Residential Green Building Committee is focused on improving the housing stock of the Commonwealth by championing green building practices in our communities. Join us on the second Monday of each month to be a part of the movement.
Special Guest:
Mark Webster, SGH: Sustainable Structural Concrete Innovations and other Structural Components.
Mark will begin his presentation with how concrete is a significant impact to our planets carbon emissions. Some say about 7% of man made greenhouse emissions. However, there are new ways to mitigate the use CO2 in the process of producing concrete and Mark will highlight these innovative design approaches to concrete design. Mark will extend his presentation beyond concrete and other sustainable structural components in residential design.
The committee’s objectives are to work to raise the awareness of the benefits of residential green building and remodeling and to increase the quantity of projects registering for LEED for Homes. The committee, through education and outreach, will focus on the following:
