Q2 STADIUM & ST. DAVID’S
PERFORMANCE CENTER:
CELEBRATING THE LOVE
OF THE GAME AND
COMMUNITY
By Jonathan Emmett, Gensler
This spring, Austinites will officially welcome its’ first
major league team, Austin FC, and come together to
cheer them on at the new stadium and surrounding
parks. Q2 Stadium, which can host 20,500 fans on game
day, creates a world-class experience for all who visit,
capitalizing on its natural landscape, the City’s cultural
heritage and tech-forward growth. The stadium is a 365-
day destination, encouraging fans and guests to interact
in an environment that supports living, working and
recreation.
The Ultimate Fan Experience
Before and after matches, fans can come together in the
multiple, landscaped outdoor spaces which surround the
stadium, including an outdoor amphitheater and stage
for live music. One of the many clubs inside Q2 Stadium
opens to the exterior, with outdoor terraces overlooking
the amphitheater.
Other amenities include a beer hall that will be open
before, during and after matches, featuring local food
and beverage offerings, as well as large video screens for
watch parties and pre- and post-game entertainment.
The Verde Store, Austin FC’s open year-round retail store,
offers customizable jerseys and unique team apparel for
every fan to personalize and show off their team spirit.
The store will also feature team-branded merchandise
from YETI, the Club’s official jersey partner.
With a steep and intimate seating bowl, the venue
ensures a great view of the action from every seat. Each
side of the venue offers unique viewing experiences,
including the Supporters Section in the south end. This
area holds almost 4,000 of the most ardent fans, who will
lead the crowd in songs and chants from this standingroom
only section. Open concourses and other standing
areas allow fans to move around the venue and socialize,
or visit local food vendors while keeping a close eye on
the action.
On game days, VIP guests enjoy diverse premium
experiences like no other. Air-conditioned clubs and
suites offer some of the best and closest views of the
action, as well as locally-inspired food and beverages.
The character of each space provides authentically Austin
experiences for both gameday and for hosting private
8 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM
events year-round. The exclusive Q2 Field Club comes
with VIP seating only feet away from the pitch and a clear
view of the players as they walk onto the field.
Throughout Q2 Stadium, measures have been put in
place to ensure an optimum environment for fans, staff
and players. For example, many of the amenities have
been designed with touchless controls, and, cashless
food and beverage sales will be available throughout Q2
Stadium.
Technology as a Top Amenity
Technology is a prime feature throughout the venue
and site. The large video board, LED ribbon boards
and distributed sound system offer fans a true allencompassing
experience. In addition, they will benefit
from premium connectivity at the stadium via a neutralhost
cellular distributed antenna system (DAS) and
Wi-Fi 6 networks, the latest generation of Wi-Fi. The
DAS system enables multi-carrier coverage and will
accommodate 5G upgrades, when available. Fans can
also access next-generation hotspot technology.
A Place for Community and Connection
The 24-acre site for Q2 Stadium is designed as a hub for
the surrounding neighborhood. Taking inspiration from
Austin’s outdoor culture, the stadium is surrounded by
large open spaces that will be open to the neighborhood
on non-game days. These spaces will be used by the
community to host a range of activities. As such, the
stadium doubles as a 365-day venue for the community
as a place of connection and recreation. The recent
funding of Project Connect will provide an onsite metro
station, that will bring fans to the stadium on game day
and serve as a catalyst for surrounding transit-oriented
development.
Sustainability at the Core
Austin FC and the design team worked closely with the
City of Austin to ensure sustainable design elements are
incorporated and expressed throughout the venue and
site. These include indoor water use reduction; enhanced
site water quality and rainwater management features, as
well as optimal energy performance.
The incorporation of flexible outdoor open-area and
minimal-conditioned spaces promote a connection to
nature throughout the year and optimize fan comfort.
The large roof canopy, which covers the entire seating
bowl, protects fans from rainfall and keeps the seats
shaded for much of the day– a must when temperatures
reach triple digits. Additionally, the stadium was oriented
to pull in breezes aided by open corners, an open-air
concourse, and breathable mesh fabric seats, the most of
any major league sports venue worldwide, which all help
keep the lower bowl cool for the comfort of the players
and fans.
A New Kind of Training Facility
St. David’s Performance Center is a 30,000 sf, state-ofthe-art
facility, offering professional and academy players
access to top-notch sports medicine and training. The
facility features three full-sized soccer pitches and one
half-sized pitch, including a community field with seating
for 1,000 spectators. The community field is available as
a public amenity as part of the larger effort to leverage
soccer as a positive influence for the neighborhood and
in support of youth wellness. St. David’s Performance
Center creates an anchor for the Parmer Pond Complex, a
23-acre recreation, office and entertainment district.
Jonathan Emmett is a Principal and Design Director at Gensler. His expertise lies
in designing sports venues and training facilities, combining his extensive technical
knowledge of these projects with his passion for great design, to create exceptional
spaces for all major sports leagues. These projects include Lincoln Financial Field,
home of the Philadelphia Eagles, Staples Center, and Toronto FC’s BMO Field.
He has also worked on a number of prominent international projects including
the technologically- innovative Saitama Super Arena in Japan and Perth Arena in
Australia. Jonathan recently directed the design vision for the Dallas Cowboys
World Headquarters and training facility, LAFC’s Banc of California Stadium, and
the interior design for Chase Center, home of the Golden State Warriors.
Austin FC is targeting a minimum of LEED Silver
Certification for the venue.

Nexus East
By: Britt Design Group
Photos by: Matt Batista
Prominent commercial and residential interior design
firm, Britt Design Group (www.brittdesigngroup.com)
is behind the interior design of some of Austin’s most
well-known public spaces and multi-family developments
like Citadel at Tech Ridge, The Grove, The Astonian,
Indeed Tower and more. Recently completed by Laura
Britt and her team is Nexus East, a 351 unit multifamily
community located at 720 Airport Blvd in Austin, by
Ardent Developers.
Britt Design Group collaborated with architect Davies
Collaborative, builder Oden Hughes, LLC and landscape
architect Benkendorfer + Associates on the 375,000
square foot complex touted as a next-generation
community featuring amenities for today’s “work fromhome
lifestyle.”
Laura Britt and her team designed all of the expansive
common areas of Nexus East including the lobby,
leasing center, club area, business center, 2,504 square
foot fitness center, roof top clubhouse and deck, pool
courtyard, secondary courtyard, amenity restrooms, dog
wash, unit finish out, and model units.
12 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM
One of the highlights of the complex is the 2,529 square
foot, state-of-the-art business center which caters to the
growing trend and popularity of a work from home/ coworking
environment.
The business center and co-working spaces are loaded
with amenities and features for residents to comfortably
and efficiently WFH. This includes private offices, private
phone rooms, conference rooms, open workspace,
and lounge seating. The wide palette of workspace
gives residents everything they need to conduct work
from Nexus without needing to leave the premises.
Conference rooms provide access to TV’s that can be
used for presentations or video meetings. The overall
palette of the business center is neutral with pops of
red, yellow, teal and a mix patterns with movement
throughout to enhance the energy in the space.
Another highlight is the first level clubhouse. Laura and
her team designed the area with a modern industrial vibe
-- giving a nod towards the tech community in the area.
The use of corrugated metal, tile, and hardwood in the
finish-out contrasts nicely against the warm leathers and
soft velvets used in the furnishings. Dark solids, vibrant
patterns, and large light fixtures ground the various
spaces. The café area offers plenty of space for large
gatherings or individual seating. The club house is fully
equipped including a kitchen and bar area and is able
to accommodate any type of event, large or small. The
stylish lounge is perfect for watching a sporting event
or an intimate place to hang out. The pool table and
shuffleboard liven up the space, making the clubhouse a
laid-back and welcoming environment.
The roof top club gives residents a secondary space to
lounge, dine, or work. With a smaller footprint, it has a
more intimate feel. The community table and lounge are
grounded by light fixtures hanging from the warm wood,
pitched ceiling. The white subway tile used throughout
the project and mix of dark and bright furniture elements
continue out to the roof deck. The large island and grilling
area give residents the opportunity to grill out and relax
in the laid-back atmosphere. The lounge is flexible,
allowing residents to move seating to accommodate
their party.
The property offers various other touch-down locations
for residents to utilize, including the lobby and
mezzanine. Both offering comfortable seating and a
warm, welcoming atmosphere. The pool and secondary
courtyards give residents opportunities to lounge, swim,
and grill out while enjoying the Texas sun. The large
courtyards offer plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors
while on the property. The fitness center features a fun,
energizing carpet throughout with double height ceilings
and a mezzanine level; maximizing the overall space and
giving residents a high-end workout experience.

THE CITY OF AUSTIN
PERMITTING &
DEVELOPMENT CENTER:
A NEW MODEL OF
RESILIENT, STREAMLINED
DESIGN FOR CIVIC
BUILDINGS
By Sandrine Hitchcock, Gensler
The City of Austin Permitting and Development Center
(PDC) is a striking campus designed to attract, retain, and
inspire top talent — including the many millennials now
entering the workforce — and to serve the customers
and citizens of Austin more effectively and conveniently.
The building promotes information sharing and increases
the interaction between departments to better serve the
Austin community. The large flow of daily visitors will
benefit from an approachability and convenience not
normally associated with civic departments.
Centrally located within the city, the PDC is housed in
a new, four-story office building on a 5.1 acre site in
the revitalized Highland Mall neighborhood, also home
to Austin Community College. The neighborhood is
comprised of residential buildings, entertainment and
food and beverage options all within walking, biking
or a short driving distance. The user experience of the
building is characterized by its embrace of the outdoors
with large windows to draw in natural light, a rooftop
deck space and open, inviting public spaces.
Design Driver: The Customer Experience
The City of Austin had a simple request for the
Gensler design team: create an exceptional customer
experience. Previously, all the PDC departments
were dispersed throughout several facilities or
located on different floors. This separation hindered
interdepartmental collaboration and communication,
resulting in a high level of customer dissatisfaction.
Today, all 14 departments are housed in a single 251,000
SF building, establishing a greater cohesion and increased
resource sharing between them. This strategy created
a “one-stop-shop” approach for customer service as
representatives of all departments are now able to serve
people in one spot.
The variety of public spaces in the PDC is based on
the idea of a multi-level service model and one-onone
meetings that serve as a single, inclusive response
16 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM
to customer concerns. This model was extended to
promote self-service, assistance and guidance through
informal meetings, in addition to those with departments
personnel. The large floor plates allowed for a single
ground floor customer experience and also foster a
greater variety of meeting spaces, seating areas, outdoors
spaces, which created a facility able to accommodate
both City employees and customers’ needs.
Modernizing the Workplace
PDC employees also needed a more efficient and
upgraded workplace to not only help facilitate day-today
tasks, but also attract and retain the next generation
of talent. The design team began by standardizing all
the workstations, which will allow departments to easily
expand or relocate without new construction or having to
purchase new furniture.
The standardized amenities and support spaces
which are evenly spaced across all the floors are
key to the streamlined design approach. Because
of the standardized spatial organization across
floors, with an equal distribution of the breakroom,

meeting rooms, libraries and focus rooms, the design
improves efficiencies, augments future departmental
re-organizations and reduces the need for extensive
interior work. This approach contributes to the long term
sustainable goals of the project by reducing material
waste over time and extending reuse strategies to space
reorganization.
Move Toward Greater Sustainability & Wellness
Various aspects of the PDC building encourage
sustainability and wellness. One highlight of the facility is
a blackwater system – among the first in the city. Nestled
in native vegetation, the system allows for the reuse of
wastewater for flushing of toilets within the building.
The facility can also reclaim water from rainwater and
condensate for landscaping purposes, which significantly
reduces water use. Both systems contribute to the PDC’s
sustainability goals, which include diverse and walkable
communities, site specific climate and hydrology design,
access to public transportation, bicycle routes and access,
greenfield protection and habitat restoration.
Other sustainable design elements in the PDC include
advanced energy metering, certified wood, heat island
reduction, green energy, indoor air quality, light
pollution reduction and natural light promotion and
control, low volatile organic compound (VOC) emitting
materials, sound reduction and thermal comfort. The
PDC is also designed to promote water quality, waste
management and the implantation of the whole building
life cycle assessment to better track its energy use and
environmental impact.
The abundance of natural light throughout the building,
views to the outdoors, 100% of workstations being sitstand
with fully adjustable seats, LED lighting, healthy
food options, all further enhance and contribute to an
environment that supports employee wellbeing.
To further emphasize access and convenience for
employees and customers, the PDC has a new onsite
parking garage, located next to the building. In addition
to the 969 parking spaces, the garage features 16 electric
vehicles charging stations and provisions to install up to
80 more. Employees can also take advantage of a secure
bicycle storage and repair shop, the employee fitness
center and a future retail and community space, which
further contribute to the community and wellness goals
of the development.
Finally, the City wanted the PDC to function as a
paperless division, a need further accelerated by the
pandemic. As a result, the PDC’s design of consolidating
all the departments into one building will lower paper
usage and encourages the implementation of more digital
processes.
In recognition of the building’s resilient design strategies,
the PDC is currently expecting to receive WELL Silver
and Austin Energy Green Building 4-Star certifications.
While the project’s goals were driven by streamlining
18 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM
processes, encouraging digital tools, and enhancing
the customer experience, the value of the human
connection, individuals needs, encounters settings, and
outcomes, wellness and wellbeing, all were and will
remain what this facility brings to the experience of
both City employees and customers. The importance of
designing an environment that supports and enhances
communications, sharing and wellbeing remains at the
forefront of sustainable and lasting strategies. Moving
forward, the Permitting and Development Center will
serve as a model for future development of other city
projects.

THE CARPENTER HOTEL
By Specht Architects Photos by: Chase Daniel
Carpenter Hotel- in Austin Texas is truly a unique
structure that incorporates an iconic landmark building,
Austin’s Carpenter Union Building (circ 1940), with new
design and construction that melds seamlessly. Almost
all of the original heritage pecan trees on the site were
preserved and incorporated into the property designalthough
you are in the hub of busy downtown Austin the
hotel is enveloped by these old groves, giving a feeling of
warmth and protection from the busy city beyond.
The Carpenter Hotel is a hidden oasis in one of the last
pockets of Old Austin. It is a compound of buildings
of different vintages surrounding a pecan tree-shaded
courtyard and pool, and features a restaurant, café, event
pavilion, and 93 guest rooms. It has a character that is
unlike any other hotel in town. The new hotel building,
shade canopies, and Quonset-hut-based pavilion have a
new and distinct architectural expression, but the forms
and materials are harmonious with the existing union hall
and the other unselfconscious industrial buildings in the
area. It all fits together seamlessly.
The new hotel building is composed of an exposed
rough-concrete frame, with infill walls made of locallysourced
clay masonry blocks and recycled steel oil-drilling
pipe. Where trees had to be removed (in all cases these
were damaged or otherwise compromised), the pecan
wood was sawn into boards and used as a feature in the
spaces. Materials are expressed as-is, and decorative
effect, where it exists, is created through the spacing and
patterning of basic elements, or by the direct application
of signage. There is no attempt to mimic historic styles,
nor is there an attempt to follow architectural trends.
It is simple and direct, and its power comes from this
straightforward expression.
The design was driven by a sense of place; the desire
to create something that is natural to its location,
neighborhood, and the city as a whole,” says Scott Specht,
Founder of Specht Architects. “ It is a new take on the
idea of adaptive re-use that doesn’t mimic what was
existing, or create a bright line between the “old” and the
“new”, but a stealth approach that merges all the parts
into an urban collage that feels unforced and authentic.”
An existing “mid-century-utilitarian” union hall for
Carpenter’s Local 1266 on the site was also re-purposed
as the lobby and restaurant with minimal changes.
The interiors of the hotel are in continuity with this
attitude. Floors and ceilings in the rooms are concrete,
and most walls are the same clay block as the exterior.
20 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM
Furniture and cabinetry are made from raw plywood,
or sourced from small manufacturers. Each room has a
large terrace that overlooks the surrounding treescape. It
is a place that feels simultaneously new, and “like it has
always been there. Comfortable, unpretentious, and
truly Austin.

Selling in the COVID Era
Wednesday, August 11 | 1:15 p.m. - 2:15 p.m. | Keynote Area
Selling in the construction industry during and post COVID is challenging. Some of the tried and true methods are less
effective and many new ones are not as effective as they were at the onset. How do you adjust your sales strategy to
continue to produce profitable business, increase revenue and even grow in this time period? Giving up on sales is a
mistake and will be realized often when it’s too late. What we’ll cover:
• Is outside sales still relevant • Is Zoom the new normal • Is face to face selling possible
How can you integrate digital selling with traditional selling?
We will dive deep into all these areas and you will come out with a baseline to build a sales plan. Many construction
industry related companies are thriving in this climate. This is a chance for you to be one of those experiencing success.
Target Audience: Architects, General Contractors, Subcontractors, Builders & Remodelers
Networking & Association Use
Thursday, August 12 | 1:15 p.m. - 2:15 p.m. | Keynote Area
Many contractors never join relevant associations that can produce revenue for them. Even worse they spend the dues
money and don’t maximize the effectiveness of the association. We will layout how to determine what associations to
join, how to work them and get business from your involvement. The single greatest way to find grouped customers and
network contacts is right in your backyard association!
Work them to the fullest and you’ll never make a cold call again!
Target Audience: Architects, General Contractors, Subcontractors, Builders & Remodelers

living in the future of 2020. Scott will cover the strange building techniques that these visionaries thought we’d be using,
including spray-foam structures, bolt-together fiberglass shells, and even inflatable bubble homes.
Scott will also talk about what the true home of the future will encompass looking forward, covering the newer ideas of
lighting, home automation, and architecture.

The Everchanging Shift for Multifamily Design Post-COVID-19
Thursday, August 12 | 11:30am - 1:00pm | Keynote Area
2020 forced us to pivot quickly and learn to be productive working from home. Many companies have found their
employees enjoy this flexibility and value more time at home. Because of this, we predict we’ll see the rise in the focus of
the home as a workspace as well as a deeper emphasis on health and wellness. As the work from home trend is here to
stay, it will be increasingly important to take all that comes with that into account in post-pandemic design. Amenities like
large business centers, community gathering areas, and gyms and wellness centers will be key in creating functional and
enjoyable live/work environments.
Target Audience: Architects, General Contractors, Subcontractors, Builders, and Remodelers

The Rise & Fall of the Green Building Movement - 1 AIA Credit
11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. | Floor D
Peter Pfeiffer, FAIA
CEO & Founder | Barley|Pfeiffer Architecture
Why is today’s technology-based “LEED” Green Building program a far cry from the original, and arguably deeper, ideals
and aspirations of the “Green” movement? What’s more real? What’s next? Now the green building movement has been
codified into a checklist approach to integrating various “green” building products and technologies into our homes and
buildings. New “catchy” terms are being bantered about – like “IAQ” and “Net Zero” homes and buildings. What does this
mean? What does it “boil down” to? Isn’t what we’re trying to achieve is to make our buildings, homes, and communities
simply perform better? What about a different approach – that of “Green” or “High Performance” building – BY DESIGN?
Target Audience: Architects, developers, general contractors, environmental & green consultants, Realtors

A GUIDE FOR GENERAL CONTRACTORS BUILDING LEED
THE INTEGRATIVE PROCESS
AND EARLY CONTRACTOR
INVOLVEMENT
By: Sarah Andrews, Sustainable Solutions
The integrative process is a multidisciplinary approach
to working collaboratively as a project team throughout
the design process. The team is ideally formed before
design and continues its engagement throughout
the design phase, including programming, predesign,
schematic design, and the final design phases. Team
members are drawn from all of the disciplines involved
on a project, both design and construction. Project
stakeholders such as the owner, facility manager, and end
users are also engaged to provide the most inclusive and
comprehensive review of the project to produce a highperformance
design.
The integrative process is intended to be inclusive,
collaborative, goal-driven, and iterative in nature in that
the process is repeated as decisions are made by the
project team and design of the project moves forward.
The integrative process is most effective when adopted
early in the design phase, but the process can be utilized
later and still provide valuable insights. The overarching
intent is to include as many designers, constructors, and
stakeholders as possible to achieve the goal of a highperformance
facility.
The integrative process team includes members from the
owner, design professionals, construction professionals,
trade partners, specialists, and stakeholders like the
end users. The owner’s team may be comprised of an
owner’s representative, a financial manager, and/or a
construction manager. The responsibilities of the owner’s
team members include providing the owner’s project
requirements, establishing a project budget, defining
goals for sustainability, and defining a basis of design
for the team to work from. Core design team members
would likely consist of the architect, mechanical and
structural engineers, a civil engineer, and a landscape
architect. The architect is typically the lead for the design
team, and all disciplines are responsible for the overall
design of the project and facility systems as well as
providing support toward the team’s sustainability goals.
The construction team members are the hand’s on
experts and would include a construction manager or a
general contractor along with their trade partners. The
constructors, subcontractors, and suppliers are highly
skilled at providing realistic and practical viewpoints on
construction materials and methods. Responsibilities
for these team members would include providing
34 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM
constructability reviews throughout the design process
and providing estimating and design assist services.
Along with subs and suppliers, team members can make
suggestions for controlling costs and for systems which
will meet the owner’s project requirements while also
supporting the green goals.
In addition to the core design and construction team,
there may be a number of specialists involved with the
project on the team. These may include an equipment
planner, acoustical consultant, food service consultant,
infection control staff, functional and space programmers,
telecommunications designer, or a controls designer. The
actual makeup of the team will vary depending on the
specific needs of the project, but all of the specialists will
be onboard to provide specialized expertise and aid with
any basis of design parameters as appropriate.
One of the most vital groups to incorporate into
the project team are end users. They have the best
knowledge of how the facility will be utilized, familiarity
with associated practical matters, management staff
capabilities and any limitations that might impact the
performance over time of the facility. These end users
might include facility green teams, physicians and nursing
teams, facility managers, environmental services staff,
and other building occupants.
Finally, we come to the last major group of members on
our project team – stakeholders. These stakeholders are
persons, groups or entities with an interest in the project
outcome and may include community representatives,
neighbors, municipalities or other governmental agencies,
and the local economic development corporation.
Stakeholders provide community engagement and
support for the project, and may also be involved with
permitting, inspection, and financial incentives. They
are allies and can be very important in providing positive
publicity for the project.
The unified path is going to require widespread buy-in
from all team members beginning with an initial selection
of a certification system and setting the sustainability
goals for the project. At this early juncture you’re looking
to establish preliminary goals based upon the budget
and the owner’s project requirements. As the project
moves forward these preliminary goals will be further
defined and refined until the team has settled on the final
certification goal and works together to design toward
those goals.
Once you have identified the certification goal for the
project, the team will decide together which credits
will be pursued to meet that established goal or
level of certification. Every team member will have
clearly defined responsibilities and deliverables, and
communication among all team members will be critical
to the overall success of the project. This is where the

power of the integrative approach really comes into
play – when the team is functioning as a cohesive whole
making decisions together in order to move toward the
goals shared by the entire team.
The project team will have settled on the certification
goal based upon the owner’s project requirements,
among other parameters, and will be exploring options
during design to assess the most effective way to achieve
the requirements set for each strategy. This process will
no doubt require research and analysis to determine how
to most effectively incorporate the selected strategy
into the project. For example, there are many types
of building façade or mechanical systems to select
from. The project team will work together to make
those choices based upon input from the architect and
structural engineer, the mechanical engineer, and from
the electrical engineer as well.
Through the collaborative process the team will develop
a consensus on the project goals and performance targets
as the design progresses. To keep the team moving in
the same direction and on schedule, I highly recommend
conducting regular team meetings. Even though
the process has all team members at every meeting,
sometimes additional meetings between team members
may be required to work through details on a specific
design challenge.
Utilizing the integrative process successfully requires that
team members are or become comfortable with a process
that questions conventional assumptions and tests new
ideas. Team members must be fully committed to going
beyond minimum code requirements to achieve highperformance
sustainable outcomes. All members must
be willing to work collaboratively to navigate obstacles
as a team to achieve the best possible outcome for the
project. Although each team member will have assigned
responsibilities, all must be willing to learn from the
experience of others and to maintain a positive attitude
toward achieving an innovative project.
We’ve covered the concept of the integrative process
and the role of the project team members. We now
come to the role that is most critical to success on a
LEED project – the LEED project manager. While most
construction projects have a project manager, the LEED
PM is the green champion who ensures that the project
stays on track with regard to green goals. This person is
the troubleshooter and the resource for all things LEED.
A LEED PM takes the lead on managing the project from
a LEED point of view, as well as managing the herd, i.e.
the project team. It is not easy keeping a project team
moving forward on task and on time, especially if you
have a large project team. At times it can seem as if
you’re herding bees. The LEED PM maintains perspective
on the entire project to successfully achieve certification
36 CONSTRUCTIONMONTHLY.COM
as a means of recognizing the project’s sustainability
accomplishments.
The LEED PM views the project from 30,000 feet
through green glasses to assure that the project’s
green goals and performance targets are met, while
also keeping the budget in mind and the owner happy.
The LEED PM is also a liaison between the various
disciplines to aid in coordinating the efforts of all toward
a successful conclusion. The LEED PM will make sure
that preliminary calculations to establish compliance with
LEED prerequisite and credit documentation are done
as early as possible so if there is a need to make a design
change to meet or exceed an established metric, it can
be done quickly and efficiently in order to maintain the
schedule, the budget, and the green goals.
The LEED PM is also in charge of both providing guidance
to and ensuring compliance from subcontractors and
suppliers as trade partners. Serving as a resource for all
team members, both during and following the design
phase, the LEED PM is also the troubleshooter to guide
the project through any rough patches that occur. The
LEED PM should be able to expound on the topics,
requirements, and intent of credits and prerequisites
should any questions arise among the project team.
As the subject matter expert, the LEED PM should also
be able to make recommendations on ways for the team
to maximize the points achieved toward certification.
I highly recommend having a credit buffer just in case
something doesn’t pan out as planned. Sometimes
things happen, and it’s obviously preferable to have
an extra point or two or three instead of being a point
or two short of your desired certification level. In the
unfortunate instance that the points toward certification
don’t line up as planned, or in the case where another
point or two can move the project into a higher
certification level, the LEED PM will be a resource for
finding opportunities to earn those points by taking
advantage of the pilot credit library, innovation in design,
exemplary performance, and regional priorities. This
requires a deep understanding of the system and the way
the credits work, but your green champion should be
up to the task. In summary, your LEED project manager
should be knowledgeable in all things LEED, able to
translate the arcane language into terms the entire team
can understand, and resourceful if the team finds itself in
a sticky wicket.
Assembling a cohesive and qualified project team and
utilizing the integrative process can help ensure success
on a LEED project, or any other green building project.
Collaboration among multiple disciplines including early
contractor involvement will allow a project to stay on
budget, on time, and on course.

ADVOCACY AT WORK FOR
YOU – ADDRESSING THE
LUMBER CRISIS
By Chad Durham
2021 HBA Board Chair
Division President, David Weekley Homes
One of the most important benefits of an HBA
membership is unquestionably the advocacy work of
our Members and HBA staff who support them. Thanks
to their tenacity, in addition to funding from the HBA’s
Political Action Committee (HomePAC), when obstacles
are put in place that affect our ability to build in Travis
county, and our six surrounding counties, they are there
representing the whole of the home building industry.
Currently, the HBA is diligently working on an issue that
directly affects us all – developers and builders, as well
as the many vendors who supply goods and services
crucial to a successful build. This issue is affecting every
step in the home building process, housing inventory,
and the availability of affordable homes. As you may have
guessed, the topic is the rising cost of lumber.
We want you to know that the HBA is laser focused on
this issue. Recently, a team of representatives including
10+ owners and presidents of large volume homebuilders
across Texas; Dallas, Houston, and Temple HBA leaders;
as well as reps from TAB and NAHB, held meetings with
five high profile legislators including two U.S. Senators
and three Congressmen – Senator John Cornyn, Senator
Ted Cruz, Representative John Carter, Representative
Chip Roy, and Representative Lloyd Doggett, with the
goal of raising awareness about the cost of lumber and
its impact on housing affordability here and across the
country.
During these virtual meetings we emphasized the 400%
increase of lumber cost from the lumber mills, in hopes
of creating a buzz with the media, applying pressure on
lumber mills to increase production, helping increase the
domestic supply of timber harvested on public lands, and
entering into a new softwood lumber agreement with
Canada. We have encouraged our elected officials to call
for a “lumber summit” and invite builders, suppliers, and
lumber mills to the table to discuss what can be done
about the rising lumber prices.
We have high hopes that these conversations can and
will affect real change within the industry. The HBA will
continue to monitor this situation as it unfolds, and share
any updates as they happen. Please know the HBA is
working for you today and every day.

5 Benefits of Project-Based
Material Financing
What is Material Financing?
Get materials paid upfront, and pay for them in up to 120 days. Align your revenues and
expenses to grow your business more comfortably.
1 Partner with
5 Lower
Construction Experts
Monthly Payments
Traditional banks don’t understand the
construction industry or the challenges with
payment cycles. With project-based financing,
you’ll partner with experts who do.
Many project-based financing partners offer interest-only loans,
meaning there’s no amortization schedule that would lead to
higher monthly payments. Pay off the balance when you’ve
been paid for your work, and enjoy no prepayment penalties.
2
Higher Credit Limits
Your project-based financing partner will
evaluate the merit of your projects, not just
your credit score, to determine the amount of
credit to extend. This leads to higher limits
than traditional lines of credit or credit cards.
3
Faster Funding
With project-based financing, you’ll eliminate
all the tedious bank paperwork and red tape
that drags down your project timeline.
Project-based financing is far more likely to
get you same-day approvals as well as
same-day funding.
4
Better Supplier Pricing
When you can pay your supplier in cash,
upfront, you’re in a much better position to
negotiate lower prices on your materials.
In fact, most contractors save between
2-5% on material costs by using
project-based contractor financing.
