Abstract

Given the focus of the study, a necessary step was to identify green building features to consider. The following table reflects green building elements and attributes that were selected for this effort based on the literature review and survey responses (see Appendices A, B and C). While this list is extensive, it may not be exhaustive, and it is recommended that the list be updated by future studies as knowledge of other green materials, features, elements and attributes is identified.
