Problem Statement

This document outlines the requirements for designing a sustainable commercial office building. The building must incorporate environmentally responsible processes throughout construction, operation, and demolition to reduce environmental impact and resource use. Specifically, the design must address fire protection, structural integrity, electrical, plumbing, water treatment, wastewater, and lighting systems. It provides details on the building layout including 12 floors with office, meeting, and recreational spaces, parking, and mechanical rooms. The goal is to design efficient systems to reduce water and energy usage through renewable sources and maximize building lifespan while remaining economical.
