Structural engineering for the Centre for Sustainable Development, Montréal
A real showcase of sustainable development, this building was conceived and designed entirely with environmental considerations in mind. The use of recycled materials, the heating, air conditioning, lighting and water systems, and the green roof all contribute to significantly reducing energy consumption. The green wall filters indoor air and reduces air pollutants.
