High-Performance Buildings

The aim of High Performance Guidelines: Triangle Region Public Facilities is to provide a roadmap for the design and construction of efficient, cost-effective, durable, and environmentally sound buildings and landscapes. Its intended audience is local governments and schools in the region served by Triangle J Council of Governments. This region includes the 3,300 square miles in North Carolina that lie within the counties of Chatham, Durham, Johnston, Lee, Orange, and Wake, an area with a population of just over one million.

The Guidelines are designed to be an expandable document in which future case studies and technology examples can be added. Placement in a three-ring binder is therefore advised. The layout of the document was designed for printing double sided, with the exception of the cover, inside cover, and divider pages and may be downloaded under the "Downloads" section to your left.
