Book description
As more factors, perspectives, and metrics are incorporated into the
planning and building process, the roles of engineers and designers are
increasingly being fused together.
Sustainable Infrastructure
explores this trend with in-depth look at sustainable engineering
practices in an urban design as it involves watershed master-planning,
green building, optimizing water reuse, reclaiming urban spaces, green
streets initiatives, and sustainable master-planning. This complete
guide provides guidance on the role creative thinking and collaborative
team-building play in meeting solutions needed to affect a sustainable
transformation of the built environment. S. Bry Sarté
, PE, ASCE, LEED AP, founder of the Sherwood Institute and Sherwood
Design Engineers, is a leading designer in green and sustainable
engineering, and has made significant contributions to contemporary
research involving global environmental issues affecting water supply,
urban design, material science, and energy use. Bry has built an
international reputation by providing engineering services and design
solutions that reflect a deep commitment to executing well-planned,
sustainable alternatives for communities worldwide.
