Need to get an understanding of what really makes a product green? What are the criteria? What is Life Cycle Assessment? How do you understand the environmental footprint of a product? What are the materials requirements for a LEED project? Come to this workshop to get the answers to these questions.
This workshop will address the fundamentals of green materials and provide you with the knowledge to evaluate and utilize green building products to reduce your organizations environmental impacts. Topics include criteria for evaluating how green a material is, LEEDs materials requirements, how to spec for green materials and LEED, and where to find information on green products. In addition to product characteristics, methods for going from selling green, to being green will be addressed. This program is intended for architects, contractors and product manufactures, and the general public.

Wood A Natural Choice - How the Building Material Contributes to Sustainable ...Think Wood
This presentation contributes to the discourse on sustainability that is driving ongoing improvement in the way buildings are designed and constructed. Specifically, it focuses on the growing trends of wood use as a low environmental-impact building material and the effect green building rating systems have on design choices.
Materials in Action - Examining the Impacts of Building Materials Think Wood
When an architect specifies a building material, that choice casts a long shadow. While most of the environmental effects from materials occur during the extraction and production phases, they continue to influence a structures' environmental footprint long afterwards, throughout the operations phase and beyond. This presentation evaluates the environmental impact of building materials wood, concrete and steel.

Rethinking Wood as a Material of Choice – Costs less, Delivers moreThink Wood
Designers today are finding new possibilities in one of the oldest building materials on earth, wood. The building material has always been valued for its beauty, abundance and practicality, but many of wood’s inherent characteristics are rising to very current challenges. Wood’s traditional values and newest technologies meet in the projects presented in this course, illustrating the advantages of wood in four areas: cost-effectiveness in a wide range of projects; adaptability for use in challenging, visionary new designs; lower environmental costs throughout its life cycle, from its source in renewable, carefully managed forests, through an energy-efficient service life, and often on to a new, recycled and reimagined use; and a unique human-nature connection that has always been intuitive, but is now being documented in research.
Wood Products and Green Building: Rating Systems Recognizing Wood’s Environme...Think Wood
With growing pressure to reduce the carbon footprint of the built environment, building designers are increasingly being called upon to balance functionality and cost objectives with reduced environmental impact. Wood can help to achieve that balance. This presentation reviews how wood contributes to credits under the various green building rating systems, In addition, it reviews the importance of life cycle assessment and how it can be used when evaluating the environmental performance of buildings at the design stage.

You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.

Good Morning, Thank you for allowing us this opportunity to present before you. Overview In April of this year, the NHA and Navajo FlexCrete Board of Commissioners has charged this Team with taking a second look at the Business Plan originally developed by Headwaters. The team has been working with the ASU Technopolis Program over a 8-10 week period, identifying, analyzing and validating all aspects of this business venture, in hopes that we may produce a new business plan that is comprehensive, defensible and attractive enough financially to entice potential investor groups. In in moving through this process we have identified some discrepancies between the original plan and our current capabilities. Our financial models are incomplete at this time, however we have made great strides in understanding and validating the Market Place, Demand, Product Viability and Competition. As we will continue our efforts, we will focusing primarily on the completing the Financial Models and incorporating those elements into the following presentation. Transition The following presentation is what our potential investors would see for the first time: _________________________ INTRODUCTION I’m sure most of you have noticed a tremendous rise in consumer consciousness in the past few years. Many of us are feeling the strain of sky rocketing Oil, Fuel, and Energy costs. Coupled with a growing “Green Consciousness” this has led to an explosion in the Green building Market.
Technology 1: Fly Ash Natural Pozzolin dates back over 2300 years. Meaning it has the ability to enhance concrete’s characteristics. It is a siliceous/aluminous material, which enhances the strength and performance of concrete aslo resulting in: Higher Workability Higher Strength and Durability Decreased Permeability Reduced Shrinkage Reduced Sulfate Attack Reduced Heat of Hydration Technology 2: Similar to Autoclaved Aerated Concrete AAC developed in Europe about 70 years ago Mixture of ground cement, lime, sand and gypsum activated with aluminum powder to “aerate” concrete with hydrogen gas. Cured in high pressure, high temperature autoclave AAC is light weight, easily worked, fireproof, with good insulation properties AAC plant costs are high, making AAC material about 40% more expensive than wood frame
The Advantages : In comparison to traditional building systems, these Technologies yield the following advantages: Low Cost / Maximum benefit Ease of Use Physical Strength and durability- (360psi equivalent to concrete) Fire Resistance Energy / Acoustic Efficiency Environmental Sensitivity
The FlexCrete Advantage: The advantage over our direct competition is our chemical activator process, this results in lower cost of production and operations. We have direct lines of connection with our focus market, the tribal entities. We offer local distribution effectively cutting transportation cost in the Southwest Region (not all of our competitors can offer this). Our fiber reinforced composition results in superior handling on site and during transportation. We also hold the advantage of low cost of production over our indirect competition. Insulated concrete forms are primarily reinforced with relatively higher quantities of steel and concrete resulting in higher construction costs.
Market Introduction: This product was initially introduced into the Indian Housing Market primarily with the Navajo Housing Authority and it continues to establish itself within regional Indian Housing Community. This market will develop into a strong base market we can rely on far into the future. Primary Market: The Navajo Housing Authority was our first and primary market. Since coming online in 2005, the NHA has worked 15 FlexCrete Homes into its currently building production. The NHA is planning to build 150 homes a year as well as 2-4 commercial projects per year. In addition, we intend to focus on the Tribally Designated Housing Entities (TDHE) across the nation. The Santo Domingo Tribe in New Mexico is building 10 FlexCrete homes with plans to produce another 20 more to finish out the year. Marketing: We will continue to cultivate this market by holding events to show off our new production homes (ie. Burnside, AZ and Crownpoint, NM open house). There are 31 Native Communities within the 150 mile radius of the Navajo Nation. We will begin offering our NHA in-house design and construction services to these tribes in an effort to move homes into the production line for Navajo FlexCrete. We hope to build lasting relationships with these tribes for they will be our base market. This will be a revenue stream we can count on.
Custom Home Market: The initial demand seen in the custom home market for this product is surprising, considering there has been a very limited marketing push on group thus far. Custom home builders in the region have adopted a variety of green building products and are continually evaluating the competition. For example, several contractors in the Santa Fe, New Mexico have been inquiring about Navajo FlexCrete and show tremendous interest in switching to our product, because of its lower cost and better handling on site. Rocky Top Construction out of Santa Fe, NM is in the process of gearing up to begin construction on a 6000SF home in Santa Fe. Blackdiamond Construction also located in Santa Fe is getting ready to construct 1 custom home and will be evaluating the product for the construction of 20-50 by years end. The Contractor building the Santa Domingo FlexCrete homes is currently considering bidding on more AAC project and would like to use our product believing it is also a better value than the competition. Marketing: Given these circumstances, one would say that this product has begun to sell itself. However, we will continue to cultivate this market by working with contractors to build demonstration homes in high potential markets.
The Green Product Consumer: This consumer is different than most consumers, in that this group will seek out this product specifically for its green attributes. Some of those attributes are: The Child’s Residence: We have a homeowner we are currently working with on a 5000 SF home in Gunnison, Utah. This homeowner ran into some difficulty with our parent company Headwaters and was eventually referred to Navajo FlexCrete, in Page, AZ. We also had some initial difficulty meeting his timeline, but we were finally able to produce engineering drawings for his custom home. Navajo FlexCrete asked what made him decide to stay with us even after going through this difficult process. He responded by saying after doing his own research several factors played a role in him stay with us. He believes deeply in “Green Solutions” and was going to use a green building product no matter what. Economically it was the best scenario for him. Cast in place concrete, Insulated Concrete Forms and other AAC competitors didn’t yield the best value for him. He has a brother from Page, AZ and wants to see the Plant succeed knowing it was Navajo owned. Marketing: We will cultivate this market by a focused marketing campaign exemplifying our products green attributes by using the world wide web, preen publisher advertisements, green product distributors and green product conferences at the regional and national level.
Alliances: Navajo FlexCrete has been working with several Engineers and Architects to introduce this product to the Design Community. These partnerships are significant primarily because they ultimately will drive market demand higher. Some the designer we whom are currently work with are: Travis Design Associates Robert Metzler, Iinaba Engineers James Cooke, Architect University of Utah, School of Architecture Daniel Glenn, ASU Stardust Center Daniel Glenn with the ASU Stardust Center has design two demonstration projects here in Arizona. The first located in Nageezi, AZ is being closely monitored for its energy efficiency. The second is in the Town of Guadalupe located in the Phoenix Metropolitan area and has received a fair amount of publicity for its efforts in delivering a sustainable design model home to an underprivileged community. Mr. Glenn’s efforts have resulted in a fair amount of interest from the Architecture Community in Phoenix, AZ.
