更新于2021年1月29日.

自今年2月以来, the bg真人游戏娱乐 team has been meeting with our executive committee and numerous community stakeholders to update its 签名清单—the Single-Family/Townhome New Construction checklist (SF checklist) and the Multifamily New Construction checklist (MF checklist). The team is finally ready to share the last nine months of work that have culminated into 完整更新的2021年独栋/联排别墅新建设清单! We are still deep in the process of updating the energy section of the Multifamily New Construction checklist and look forward to sharing those details in the coming months.

为什么我们现在要更新这些清单?

Our main goal with our checklists is for bg真人游戏娱乐 homes to perform better than code and reward our designers and builders for this voluntary accomplishment. 检查表更新主要受代码更改的影响, 建筑业的技术进步, 投放市场的新产品, 住房市场趋势. 随着检查表的不断更新, 4-Star projects from older checklists are not the same as 4-Star projects under the new updated checklists. The changes represented in the 2018 Washington State Energy Code (WSEC) represent a significant change to the industry and to standard building practices. Many have been asking how the new energy code will affect bg真人游戏娱乐 and its checklist, 以及“绿色建筑”是如何与时俱进的. 继续阅读,找出所有答案.

在2021年的清单更新中,你会看到哪些变化?

有两项清单更新计划于2021年2月1日生效. 第一个是 更新独栋/联排别墅新建筑清单的完整清单. 以下是一些你可以期待在2021年的SF清单中看到的显著变化:

  • 新公平和社会公正信用部分
  • Simplified performance and prescriptive pathways for energy performance and water conservation, 随着质量控制和保证的增加
  • 增加了解构和回收材料的价值
  • 合并合并和来源分离回收点津贴
  • 体现碳信用额
  • 取消过时或规定的做法

没有改变的是:

  • 每个章节2-5的分数要求和每个星级的总分数
  • 房屋大小的乘数
  • 信用项目与当地绿色建筑奖励和回扣相匹配

The second checklist update our team has undertaken is on the Multifamily New Construction checklist to address changes in the 2018 WSEC. 类似于SF的清单更新, our team aims to offer builders simplified performance and prescriptive pathways for energy performance, 随着质量控制和保证的增加. 这些更新仍在进行中,并将在未来几个月宣布.

我们如何决定要更新什么?

The bg真人游戏娱乐 team put out the call to our members for feedback and consulted many Washington state green building industry experts, 政策制定者, 社区利益相关者帮助我们研究关键部分并给出专家意见. Multiple rounds of feedback provided us the insight we needed to create an even more robust set of checklists for our members, 这反映了他们对转变房地产市场的贡献.

更新SF检查表, 我们与市、县代表合作, 经验丰富的绿色建筑, bg真人游戏娱乐审核员, 能源建模者, 社会公平专家. These representatives gave us their expert opinions on how to smoothly incorporate new credit items and what changes needed to be made to current credits. This team worked incredibly hard to help the bg真人游戏娱乐 team update this checklist in its entirety. We are also thankful for the builders and verifiers who will also be involved throughout the winter to pilot the new SF checklist before its official launch in 2月ruary 2021.

Since the Multifamily checklist update primarily focuses on updating energy requirements and adding new equity and embodied carbon credits similar to the Single-Family checklist, the bg真人游戏娱乐 team has teamed up with bg真人游戏娱乐 third-party verifiers and energy modeling experts from various parts of Washington state to make sure our new energy modeling pathway coincides with the 2018 WSEC and that builders can model this section statewide.

如果你需要澄清一个新的信用项目?

That is what the bg真人游戏娱乐 handbooks are for; those are also being updated to match the new checklists. 独栋/联排别墅手册将分两期出版. The unchanged credits and portions of the handbook—and the new Equity and Social Justice section, 能源部分, 具体的碳信用——将于2月1日公布. The remaining handbook sections and any clarifications revealed during piloting will be published in the final SF handbook by June 2021. The Multifamily 能源部分 handbook will be updated and available soon after the checklist goes into effect. 这两本手册都将在网上提供,以PDF格式免费提供. 请 与您的bg真人游戏娱乐验证器讨论这些更新,因为理解这些变更和期限很重要.
