The Energy Puzzle, Part Two: Efficient Building - More Than Bricks And Mortar, USA

There are many aspects to building performance, and you can't ignore any of them if you want to achieve a high performance building. Whether it is new construction or an existing building, increased performance is realized only when mechanical systems, maintenance and end user daily habits work in concert.

Our speakers will present examples of recent construction efforts in Oregon, highlighting their experience in designing and building green buildings, and what happens when people enter the picture.
