constructing environmentally friendly, sustainable buildings
influences project management, delivery, documentation, and

through these important considerations at all phases of a
green construction project, including:
- Bidding and contracting
- Managing green design when
the contractor works as a design builder
- Subcontracting

This book is endorsed by the
Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) and was
written with the assistance and advice of a specially
assembled AGC task force.
With a focus on the green
building process from the contractor's viewpoint, the book
avoids endorsing any one green building rating system in favor
of presenting the business fundamentals common to them all.
Throughout the presentation,
flowcharts and other features offer working tools for
successfully managing green construction projects.
Plus, real-world case studies
developed through discussions with the actual contractors
involved help you understand exactly what to expect and how to
best manage constructing a green building. In short, this is
one book that you need to have on hand to be a part of the
rapidly growing green building movement. |
