  • Site design;
  • Environmentally responsible construction activities; 
  • Water conservation, efficiency, alternate water sources, and reuse;
  • Building envelope and moisture control;
  • Energy efficiency;
  • Materials including:
    • Efficiency;

1.1.3 Site and Building Resilience (11 points)

GREEN GLOBES #1.1.3.1 - ANSI #6.1.3.1 Was a Building Risk Assessment conducted and provided to building owners and designers?

  • Yes (3 points)
  • No (0 points)

Tooltip

A Building Risk Assessment identifies risks to the building including continued building occupancy resulting from extreme natural events, global climate change, and human activity for the expected service life of the building.

Assessment Guidance

The Building Risk Assessment must be conducted and provided to building owners and designers. The assessment identifies hazards and evaluates the probability and severity of occurrence of those events. These hazards include, but are not limited to, weather, flooding, seismic and volcanic events, drought, wildfire, soil stability, and terrorism.
