Green Building Resource Guide

Green Building Resource Guide Review



Architect John Hermannsson, a specialist in environmentally sound building practices, created this resource guide to help everyone involved in home building - builders, architects, and homeowners - find the facts needed to make informed decisions about environmentally sensitive design and construction. Inside this book, you will find approximately 600 "green" building materials succinctly described. This guide includes both structural and finish materials, such as recycled lumber, natural-fiber carpeting, low-toxic adhesives, and resource-efficient appliances. All of the products are organized by construction divisions and are extensively cross-referenced so you can quickly and easily find what you are looking for.
