Building Green-


S&B James Construction is committed to creating projects that are both energy efficient and Earth friendly and we will show you the positive impacts of this approach. We have utilized the United States Green Building Council (www.usgbc.org) national LEED program (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) in the remodeling of our own office as a high performance building.

What are the elements of Green Building?

• Developing sustainable sites
• Water efficiency
• Energy efficiency and atmosphere protection
• Material and resource efficiency
• Indoor environmental air quality

What are the economic incentives for Green Building?

• Improved Employee Productivity and Satisfaction.  People and salaries can be more than 75% of   the operating costs of a company. Small increases in productivity can have significant impacts on   profitability. Statistics show that green building design significantly improves employee production   and reduces absenteeism.
• Optimized Life Cycle Performance.  Green Buildings are designed to last longer and operate more   efficiently.
• Cash Incentives and Tax Credits.  State and federal cash incentive and tax credit and depreciation   programs are available for energy conservation projects
• Reduced Operating Costs.  Energy conservation projects can significantly reduce operating costs.
• Enhanced Asset Value and Profits.  Energy conservation measures can improve project worth and   company profits.

How do you Build Green?

• Set Green Building goals at the start of the project (i.e. LEED certification)
• Use the Design/Build approach to develop team participation in the process
• Develop and implement a Green Building Action Plan (i.e. LEED certification guidelines)

Building Green –The Right Thing To Do

The built environment has a profound impact on our natural environment, economy, health, and productivity. Building high performance buildings that perform their functions well and use resources efficiently makes both economic and practical sense.

Let us show you how Building Green benefits your company, your community, and the larger world you live in.
