Abstract:
The Jess S. Jackson Sustainable Winery Building (JSWB) at the University of California is expected to be the first at any university to be certified Net Zero Energy under the Living Building Challenge and only the second such building in California. When fully equipped, it will enable the adjacent teaching and research winery, brewery, and food-processing facility to operate in a self-sustainable manner through onsite capture of energy and water. To achieve the goal of reducing the project’s carbon footprint, the JSWB and design team members looked to each of the concrete suppliers to provide high-impact solutions.
