General IndormationDan Rappoport
Period. 8 Architecture 1•Name of The Building- Synergy at Dockside Green•Location- Victoria, BC, Canada•Building Type- Retail, Multi- Unit residential•Building Use- Ecology Center•Type of Construction- New Construction•Dates- Completed March 2008 and won the award in 2009•Architects- Busby Perkins and Will

Ecological Materials and Resources Used
• Recycled Materials- used biodegradable materials• Locally Produced or Manufactured Materials-
Twenty Four percent of the Dockside was used by manufactured materials.
• Natural Resources- is bamboo and cork• Low Maintenance Materials- materials that are
volatile organic compounds

Energy Efficiency• Low water flow fixture- rainwater capture and wastewater treatment lessen the use
of potable water and related operating costs. Green building reduces by 30-50%• Solar Orientation of building for passive solar or shading, cooling and ventilation-
shade south windows with exterior louvers, awnings, or trellises.• Automatic lighting and water controls- Use large exterior windows and high ceilings
to increase day lighting. Use building elements to redirect daylight and control glare.
• Heat pumps, geo-thermal, solar heat, heat exchangers, efficient heating and cooling equipment- use high-efficiency, condensing oil or gas boilers and furnaces. Use hot water heat distribution. Also they used a cogeneration system.
• Low VOC equipment- use very low or no-VOC paints• Natural Ventilation to minimize AC loads and use- provide access to operable
windows and ventilation rates meet or exceed ASHRAE Standard 62-1999• Construction and demolition waste management- fewer materials end up in
landfills and the local economy benefits from reducing the extraction and processing of non-localized virgin resources.
• Green Roofs- Power generating wind turbines, also drought resistant native plant materials to create wildlife habitat
• Life cycle Thinking- 30-50% in energy saved

Site Ecology
• Water retention, detention, soil and sedimentation control- Landscape with indigenous vegetation, landscape with edible plants.
• Use of impervious surfaces should be minimized- 30 to 40% fly ash in concrete mix reduces carbon dioxide emission associated with cement use while strengthening the concrete.
• Draught resistant plants, natural landscape, and local plantings- Select plants for drought tolerance, Recycle gray water for landscape irrigation.
• Gardens for food production- Minor vegetation• Foot and bike paths, access to bus and train transportation -
minimized need for automobiles- Secure bike storage, Close to public transit and Galloping Goose Trail, Car share program, Parking stall in parkade for car share, Mini transit system, Harbour ferry to downtown Victoria

Water Resources
• Rainwater collectors- Rainwater is collected in onsite naturalized creek and pond features, Non-potable water use for landscaping and water features.
• Low water fixtures for W/C, laves, chillers- dual-flush toilets, drip irrigation, and native and adapted landscaping.
• Automatic fixture water controls- use portable water and filters reusable water recycles water, providing 50,000 gallons per day for toilets and irrigation.
• Local plants and drip irrigations with controls for use of the natural rain- Residual treated water will recharge the naturalized waterway that flows across the site and collects rainwater as it flows towards the inner harbour.
• Gray water systems- for landscape irrigation

• Years to payback cost of ecological changes- about 8-10 years
• Yearly energy savings anticipated- 30-50% Energy 35% Carbon Emission 40% Potable Water 70% Solid Waste
• Other Values- Health at Dockside is better than a regular building because it does not have COV furniture that is harmful to you and it does not have gases that expose to you.
