Did you know the Jacob Javits Convention Center Expansion was honored this past year by the @DBIA National Design-Build Merit Award? This joint venture project joins a collection of recognitions from esteemed organizations like @AIA, @Engineering News-Record, the @American Council of Engineering Companies, and the @Building Trades Employers’ Association. In collaboration with design partner @tvsdesign, @Turner, and @Lendlease (Joint Venture) performed design-build services for the 1.2 million square foot expansion. In honor of last week's #NationalEngineeringWeek, we are spotlighting some of the key features that made the Javits Center expansion project one of a kind. 🏗️ Design-Build Excellence: Working with Lendlease, tvsdesign, and all other design and engineering professionals on the expansion, The Turner Engineering Group (TEG) and Lendlease Preconstruction played pivotal roles in its success. Working through the structural scope, the team provided design optimization, risk mitigation, and design coordination solutions for the Javits Center project. One example of the design concepts analyzed by the TEG team was the Gravel Drainage Layer. The analysis and work by the team offered schedule improvements through reduced excavation depth, removal of gravel, and plumbing installation. 🌿 Sustainability at its Core: The expansion features a one-acre rooftop farm, emphasizing the client’s and the JV’s commitment to sustainability. The façade adorned with bird-friendly glass showcases the dedication to harmonizing architecture with the environment. These elements not only elevate the project aesthetically but also contribute to a greener, more eco-conscious protocol. The Javits Center expansion would go on to earn and sustain a LEED Gold Certification. 🏆 Raising the Bar in Design-Build: As @Lisa Washington, DBIA Executive Director/CEO, notes, the continued growth of design-build is marked by impressive projects like the Javits Center Expansion. These endeavors set new standards for success, pushing the limits of high performance and optimizing triple-bottom-line success. #NationalEngineeringWeek #TurnerConstruction #JavitsCenter #NYC #DesignBuild #Sustainability #LogisticsExcellence #AwardWinningProject TVSDESIGN COMPANIES, INC Lendlease Design-Build Institute of America https://lnkd.in/e_cef4wq

Construction development , Technical managment , Sustainability consultant ( PMP®, CFPS® from NFPA , LEED GA , LEED AP ), MEP Qualifications Instructor since 2018
I had finished the course from U.S. Green Building Council (Inclusive Pathways to Health in LEED v5: Harnessing Biophilic and Universal Design ) to expand my knowledge about LEED v5 updates : This course about LEED v5 is next version of the globally recognized comprehensive framework for green building practices. LEED v5 is deeply focused on identifying and alleviating the actual, most critical threats to occupant physical health, and it considers mental health and wellness more in depth than ever before. Through strategies like biophilic and universal design and improvements to existing strategies like daylight, quality views and thermal comfort, mental health and well-being will be at the forefront of LEED going forward. By incorporating more universal and inclusive design principles, LEED will empower projects to design for physically and mentally diverse populations. This not only means improving access to spaces and amenities throughout the building, but also approaching existing strategies, like acoustic design, thermal comfort and lighting through a new lens.

Supporting the early collaboration in the Design, Engineering, Manufacture & Installation of LowCarbon + FireSafe MMC/Sustainable Panelised SIP Superstructure Solutions
Set to become the UK’s greenest primary school, and first biophilic school, as part of a pilot project by the Department for Education St Mary’s Catholic Voluntary Academy, Derby is driving increased learning and understanding of biophilic design. Biophilic design focuses on connecting those inside with nature, with the goal of promoting physical and mental health. There is an increasing number of superb and innovative biophilic buildings springing up around the world and in researching for a new Innovaré Offsite Limited presentation to support the topic of biophilic design and the completion of St. Mary's I list just one of those builds. The Edge, Amsterdam PLP Architecture was commissioned to design The Edge, Deloitte’s new offices in Zuidas, Amsterdam’s business centre. The ambition of the project was two-fold: to consolidate Deloitte’s employees, previously spread around multiple buildings throughout the city, within a single environment; and to create a ‘smart building’, intended as a catalyst for Deloitte’s transition into the digital age. Now known as one of the greenest buildings in the world this office space is a testament to the power of biophilic design, with its extensive use of natural light and ventilation. The building features a light-reflecting façade that maximizes daylight use, reducing reliance on artificial lighting. Additionally, it boasts a natural ventilation system that not only maintains a comfortable indoor climate but also significantly reduces energy consumption. It’s a building that breathes and lives with nature. If you'd like to know more about Innovaré Offsite's involvement and input on St Mary’s Catholic Voluntary Academy, Derby and other sustainable 'fabric first' education builds please get in contact. Delighted to arrange in-person or Teams meetings for individual or group CPD events. #biphilicdesign #schooldesign #sustainabledesign #compliance #collaborativeworking

Secretary-General IFME | NED Landscape Foundation of Australia | National President & Board Chair 2020 Engineers Australia
Roof and facade greenery? Yes, let's do it! IFME International Federation of Municipal Engineering has published the seventh in its series 'On the Road to Future Green City' in which we explore the ingredients we need for a green city with a future - in the run-up to the IFME and World Urban Parks Future Green City World Congress, Utrecht 23-26 September 2024 https://lnkd.in/exAdtRd6. John Boon of Arcadis writes "When we were asked, along with architectural firms Boeri and MVSA, to design the Vertical Forest Wonderwoods, we were naturally honoured and proud. At the same time, it led to discussion. Was this something for the happy few? Was this really where we needed to go: building everything over topped with a green sauce? Was this really sustainable? In other words: does the Future Green City consist of roof and facade greenery? Our answer was a resounding 'yes'. With a subtle distinction: the Future Green City also consists of roof and facade greenery. That short word, also, gets to the heart of the matter. Roof and facade greenery should never replace greenery in the 'open ground'; it is a welcome addition to it. In cities, sufficient space should be maintained and created for (avenue) trees, parks, and other public greenery. Densification should go hand in hand with making cities greener. Applying roof and facade greenery has all kinds of advantages. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/enWxPsvd Roof and facade greenery will not happen by itself. It requires leadership from administrators, investors, clients as well as designers. Leadership that is worth the effort; it leads to great Future Green Cities!" Hopefully, we will see you in Utrecht in September 2024!

Future proofing historic or listed buildings is essential to maintain their economic viability and ultimately therefore, their preservation. Achieving carbon reduction and energy efficiency is something HPH have focused on for for over 25 years and our accumulated knowledge and expertise with grade 1 and 2 listed buildings enables us to retro-fit sensitively and achieve high levels of environmental performance. It is good to see The Bath Preservation Trust promoting sustainability through future-proofing in this arena.
