LEED Certification
It can be challanging to obtain LEED certification for you project from the USGBC, especially for some of the higher certifications. Ritter Engineering and help guide you through this process and explore all of the engineering related options to obtain the highest number or LEED points and certification possible.
Daylighting
Lighting design in itself is somewhat more of an art than a science, and this is only multiplied by the use of daylighting. While this is one of the most innovative and potentially rewarding aspects of LEED design, it can also be one of the more challenging as well. This requires close coordination between the architect and the lighting designer to ensure balanced and efficient design.
Energy Management
There is no way around the fact that energy consumption is necessary in this day and age, but there are definite steps and strategies that can be taken during the design and construction phase that can greatly minimize this consumption. Proper and integrated energy management can insure that your facility is running as efficiently and economically as possible; plus it will be more functional as well.
