LEED v4 and Data Center Construction

2 hrs. Online Course

Level: Fundamental

Item#: RV-10621AW

SME: Greg Scheurich

This course has been discontinued.

 
 
Although the two aspects of this topic - Data Centers and Green Design - seem almost antithetical to each other, a properly designed data center makes good use of sustainable design. With a limited amount of incremental effort, sustainable design efforts can be paired with a good working knowledge of LEED to provide a LEED certified critical facility environment.
Course Objectives
By the end of this webinar, you will be able to:
  • Become familiar with the basics of LEED and the changes from LEED v2009 to v4.0.
  • Understand which points within LEED sensibly lend themselves to data center design & construction.
  • Describe some data management and cooling strategies that help reduce energy consumption.
  • Describe how to reduce a data center's impact on climate change and enhance human health.
  • Understand the differences between Data Center construction & requirements and standard building design.
  • Become familiar with the critical systems within and integral to Data Center construction - including UPS, Generators, Redundancy (N+1, 2N, 2N+1, etc).
