Because of Title 24 compliance, architects and property owners are looking at new ways to built and design structures– and that’s a good thing.

Over the course of the last few years, the term “sustainable construction” has established itself in our lexicon. But what exactly is sustainable construction, and why is it so important?

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency defines sustainable construction as “creating structures that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building’s life-cycle.”

But there’s more to sustainable construction than that. In addition to benefitting the environment, we believe sustainable construction is about improving the way people live while also being cost effective.

How Does Sustainable Construction Improve Our Health?

Reports confirm that workplaces designed and built to be environmentally friendly can have a significant impact on the health of its workers. Among the health benefits, an environmentally conscience design will go far in reducing or eliminating indoor air pollutants, such as mold spores.

How Can Sustainable Construction be Cost- Effective?

At first, the requirements mandated through Title 24 compliance may seem steep, but once you consider the overall picture, the long-term savings generated through reduced energy bills and other savings quickly translate to a good financial investment as the overall value of a building, designed with sustainable construction increases.

Is Sustainable Construction a Fad?

Hardly. In fact, as the effects of climate change are seen increasingly throughout the world, the importance of and emphasis on sustainable construction will only increase. Sustainable construction strikes the right chord and balance between reducing our environmental impact while maintaining economic growth.
