Assessment, Planning, and Design for Resilience

Design and construct buildings resistant to natural disasters with minimal damage and passive survivablity.

The resiliency, passive thermal, and interior environment properties of concrete masonry are considered for Integrative Process, Optimize Energy Performance, Enhanced Durability, Acoustic Performance, and Thermal Comfort Design.

Similarly, those attributes are supportive of analyses to achieve the goals for these pilot credits, while also performing as a stout, disaster-resistant structural system.
