Potkovick Construction Management Option The Pennsylvania State University Senior Thesis – Spring 2005 Jessica A. Potkovick Construction Management Option The Pennsylvania State University Senior Thesis – Spring 2005 LEED CERTIFICATION ANALYSIS Background: Evolution of Research Proposal Goals:  Determine Goals of the USGBC  Determine Needs of the Building Industry  Compare the objectives of the USGBC and the opinions of the building industry to establish if their needs are being met. If not, suggest actions for meeting those needs.

Potkovick Construction Management Option The Pennsylvania State University Senior Thesis – Spring 2005 Survey Goals: Why Owner’s choose not to go for/complete a LEED certification? Determine the current process used to document credit fulfillment. Determine satisfaction with current LEED documentation requirements. Identify how familiar the industry is with current changes in the process and if they believe they are positive. Identify difficult credits to achieve and why. BUILDING INDUSTRY SURVEY

Potkovick Construction Management Option The Pennsylvania State University Senior Thesis – Spring 2005 Jessica A. Potkovick Construction Management Option The Pennsylvania State University Senior Thesis – Spring 2005 CONCLUSIONS USGBC:  Provide a detailed list of specific credit requirements.  Modify the reference guide so that designer and contractor requirements are addressed separately or create individual designer and contractor guides.  Offer assistance with credit evaluation throughout the course of the project.  Or, create a position at the USGBC for LEED Inspectors.  Continue to find ways to streamline the documentation process and reduce the amount of time and paperwork that is required to put submittals together. Building Industry:  Take an active part in the public comment period.  Offer contractor focused LEED training to associates and subcontractors to clarify LEED certification process and rating system.

Potkovick Construction Management Option The Pennsylvania State University Senior Thesis – Spring 2005 Jessica A. Potkovick Construction Management Option The Pennsylvania State University Senior Thesis – Spring 2005 Excavation Support System Analysis Goals:  Examine both the original and current systems and determine the impact of switching.  Determine if there is an alternate solution for further detailed analysis by investigating other systems in terms of constructability, schedule, and cost. Conclusion:  Major Impact on Constructability; Little Impact on Cost and Schedule  Further Investigate Purchasing the Property or Purchasing the Property/Selling Back MEP Coordination Goal:  Create a CAD Implementation Plan for Holder Construction Conclusion:  Currently in Process of Similar Plan LEED Certification Analysis Goal:  Determine if the goals of the USGBC are aligned with the needs of the Building Industry. Conclusion:  Needs are not currently met; Satisfaction will most likely improve following the release of LEED Version 2.2.
