This Building Structure is build on;
Piles with poured-in-place concrete piles caps and grade beams.
Combinations of structure steel-moment resistant frame/braced
frame, metal floor decking, poured-in-place concrete slabs and
spray applied fireproofing.
The exterior cladding consists of precast panels with a granite
facade.
The building was based on leading edge green design and
engineering principles that save energy and natural resources.

Sustainability building
Energy efficient, less water usage, non toxic, renewable energy
source and longer life time.
Not harmful from the environment.
Construction materials are natural.
After demolition of building; building material can be reusable,
recyclable.

Innovative and Technological features
Maximizes Daylight.
Energy conservation.
Super high efficiency / low mercury tubes, and perimeter light sensors
that automatically dim the lights when the sun shines in brightly.
Solar energy generation; Photovoltaic panels mounted on the low rise
roof.
Water Conservation.
Use of Native Grasses in Landscape.
Use of environmentally sensitive and resource efficient materials

Sustainable benefit
The sustainability is the extent to which current needs can be
fulfilled without compromising the needs of future generations.
The sustainability issues are concerned based on Economic,Environmental and Social value.
Social benefitChild developments centre; can accommodate 60 new - born,
kids and provides priority enrolment and reduced additional costs
for building employees.

Economical Benefit
The building HVAC system allows for on-demand fresh air,
flushing internal air and cooling with outside air. This system is
an energy efficiency measures save electricity. Solar panels located on the mid-level rooftop; generate
electricity.
Day lighting; Applies in all climates, healthier, more pleasant,
and free. Artificial lighting contributes to heat loads, and it can
be affect buildings electrical load.

Environmental Benefits
Wood Cladding in the lobby and other public areas is made
from sustainable Eucalyptus which is plentiful , fast- growing
and its harvest does not damage the environment.
Spackle and Paints used in the building eliminated volatile
organic compoundsreducing Air pollution.

Barriers.
Most of the Building Materials are new from the Building
Industry specially some are newly from this building. Therefore
the Durability of the Materials are Lower, Insecurity , no
Warranty and most are untested Materials.
So It may be harmful for the building life time.

Discussions
CAL/EPA Building design is an environmentally sensitive.
The Rewards of green building are reflected in both ecological
and economical returns. Cal/EPA mission was to reduce the
environmental footprint of the building.
Protecting the environment, using less energy through natural
ventilation provisions and daylight utilization, cost saving
developing better waste management and taking water
conservation are specially consider in the Cal/EPA Building
Project.

Conclusion
Building sector is the largest source of Greenhouse gas
emissions around the globe. Being green, or sustainable, is one
pressing issue coming from both internal and external drivers
for construction and engineering companies.
Hence; Constructing a sustainable friendly building is common
in present day Construction Industry.
