You Should Understand
Task Item No. 1-8: Coordinate sustainable design and construction requirements.
- Understand the sustainable goals of a project, and in what ways the specifier can help inform the design team’s goals.
- Know where and how to incorporate the project’s sustainable design features into the specifications to insure that sustainable construction requirements are met.
- Understand life cycle activities.
