Waste and Wastewater Design in Buildings

Course No. BD-2005

Credit: 2 PDH

Course Fee: $57.90 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Steven G. Liescheidt, P.E., CSI-CCS, CCPR

Overview

Sustainable design involves integration of multiple disciplines. The goal of effective water management is to reduce water consumption without compromising the performance of equipment and fixtures. Using water more efficiently is a green strategy for several reasons: it reduces pressure on sometimes-limited water resources, reduces the amount of energy and chemicals used for water and wastewater treatment, and, to the extent that the use of hot water is reduced, increases energy savings—with associated environmental benefits.

In this course the student will learn a wide variety of sustainable concepts and practical ideas related to water and wastewater systems including water management concepts, plumbing design concepts, fixture selection considerations and more sophisticated concepts such as graywater collection and rainwater harvesting. Although the reference text discusses Federal Facilities, the principles apply to all building types.

The student is expected to read and review the material contained in the Greening of Federal Facilities – Second Edition, May 2001 (Part VI – Water and Wastewater).

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
