CALGreen – These measures promote the use of alternative energy sources, mined aggregate replacement, and a substitute for potable water in the production of concrete as part of a broader strategy for resource efficiency.

These steps are taken to lower the volatile organic compounds (VOC) in finish materials that are frequently used on a project, which will assist the

CALGreen – These regulation aims to promote the use of ultra-low emitting formaldehyde (ULEF) resins or no-added formaldehyde (NAF) based resins for items installed in a project.

CALGreen – These precautions are meant to lower occupant exposure to potentially dangerous fumes or chemicals in certain spaces or rooms, such as garages, cleaning or laundry rooms, and printing rooms. Additionally, it prevents dangerous effects from spreading to nearby locations.

CALGreen – These procedures are meant to lessen the number of pollutants that people’s shoes or wet clothing bring into a building at points of entrance. This maintains higher level air quality for building occupants by keeping the air and finish surfaces free of contaminants.

CALGreen – These are meant to give building occupants some degree of control over the lighting and thermal comfort in their workstations, including multi-occupant spaces. Although there is little evidence to back up assertions that workers who have control over lighting and thermal comfort are more productive or more likely to show up to work, the objective is to raise workplace satisfaction.

CALGreen – To limit the use of refrigerants that harm the ozone layer and cause the greenhouse effect. The EPA is phasing out the use of these refrigerants gradually, but voluntary adoption of these regulations can fasten the process and safeguard our planet.

CALGreen – The intent of this measure is to salvage over 65% of all non-hazardous, new construction or demolition waste. The purpose is to reduce the amount of construction waste from new construction and demolition. This would encourage material resource efficiency through reuse and recycling of construction waste products

CALGreen – The installation and features of elevators and escalators that conserve energy by providing systems and controls to reduce the energy demand. This will save large amount of energy consumptions.

CALGreen – The infrastructure needs to be ready to support future electrical demands raising by the EV charging capabilities. This is done by installing raceways for future electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) at the time of new building construction.
