In addition, Sustainable Preservation presents 50 case studies of projects--schools, houses, offices, stores, museums, and government buildings--that set new standards for holistic approaches to adaptive reuse and sustainability. The author covers design issues, from building location to lighting systems, renewable power options, stormwater handling, and building envelope protection and integrity. The book also reviews operational issues, including materials choices for low lifetime maintenance, green housekeeping, and indoor air quality."--Provided by publisher.  a"The book contains case studies of key projects of a variety of types of buildings and provides key principles that architects and preservation professionals can put into practice"--Provided by publisher. 0aSustainable architecturezUnited States9205786 0aSustainable buildingsxDesign and constructionzUnited States9205787 0aHistoric preservationzUnited States9205788  a= C.1 SDU  cGBE2lcc  c107624d107624  00102lcc406NA2542 C311 S2010708CGB9282146aSDUbSDUcGEN3d2025-09-16e2l0oNA2542 C311 S 2010p1000363457r2025-09-16 00:00:00tC.1w2025-09-16yGBE
