  • Telus Building Final.Qxd
    TELUS WILLIAM FARRELL BUILDING, VANCOUVER BC 1940 ORIGINAL BUILDING, 2001 RENOVATION TYPE: OFFICE BUILDING, 8 STORY OWNERS: BC TELEPHONE ACCOMMODATION SERVICES ARCHITECTS: BUSBY + ASSOCIATES ARCHITECTS STRUCTURAL ENGINEER: READ JONES CHRISTOFFERSEN MECHANICAL ENGINEERS: KEEN ENGINEERING CO. LTD. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS: REID CROWTHER & PARTNERS LTD. The William Farrell Telus Building is located in the downtown core of Vancouver, British Columbia. This building is located at 49.11 N latitude and 123.10 W longitude. The altitude in Vancouver is 3 meters above sea level. The mean monthly temperature ranges between 3 to 17 degrees Celsius. Vancouver's downtown street grid is skewed at nearly 45 degrees off the north 1 south axis; the William Farrell Telus Building complies with the governing grid of the city. The building holds approximately 500 employees of Telus Corporate, located within the Telus Complex. This building renovation was started in 1997. It opened in 2001-2002, with an updat- ed gross floor area of 12,193 m² to make it a comfortable and sustainable environment. Traditionally, the architect is responsible for initiating environmental awareness in a 2 design. If a design is to be "green" - sustainable elements must be explored at the preliminary stages of the project. Often, the client has to be convinced of the positive environment and finan- cial benefits of constructing a "green" building. In the case of the William Farrell building, the client, Telus Corporate Telecommunications mandated that the renovation to their head office be renovated to make it a sustainable, environmentally conscious design. Considerations to improve the work environment were to be incorporated wherever possible.

  • Esign Guidelines for Green Roofs
    esign guidelines d for green roofs by Steven Peck and Monica Kuhn, B.E.S., B. Arch, O.A.A. ABSTRACT Green roof infrastructure promises to become an increasingly important option for building owners and community planners. As we move into the 21st century, green roofs can address many of the challenges facing urban residents. Life cycle costing indicates that green roofs cost the same or less than conventional roofing and they are an investment which provides a significant number of social, environmental and economic benefits that are both public and private in nature. These benefits include increased energy efficiency (from cooling in the summer and added insulation in the winter), longer roof membrane life span, sound insulation, and the ability to turn wasted roof space into various Fig. 1– Pelgromhof Senior’s Residence Green Roof types of amenity space for building Amersfort, Netherlands Photograph courtesy of S. Marshall occupants. Green roofs filter particulate matter from the air, retain and cleanse storm water and provide new opportunities for biodiversity preservation and habitat creation. They generate aesthetic benefits and help to reduce the ‘urban heat island effect’ - the overheating of cities in the summer which contributes to air pollution and increased energy consumption.. This article provides an introduction to green roof infrastructure and describes how to implement and market a green roof, looks at costs, and presents three case studies. Ontario Association of Architects LEARNING OBJECTIVES After reading this article you should understand: 1. The elements of a green roof 2. How to select the type of green roofs you should employ on your project 3.
