DCMG 208 Sustainable Construction

Sustainable technologies in the construction industry are explored with an emphasis on regenerative design. Students gain a deeper understanding of sustainable production processes and methodologies, such as prefab/modular construction and 3D technology, and the possibilities for greater efficiencies and waste reduction. Other innovations for carbon recapture, ZNE, and negative emissions as well as building codes and industry sustainability standards, such as LEED, Living Building Challenge, WELL and other sustainability standards, are introduced for students to embark on their desired certification process.
