There's Still Time to Nominate Excellence in
Code Administration, Code Compliance


Know a code administration department that has made achieving high-performance buildings a priority? Then nominate it for a 2013 Beyond Green High-Performance Building Award. But don't wait. There are only three weeks left to nominate code administration departments that have helped to achieve high-performance building levels through code administration or code compliance.

The National Institute of Building Sciences Sustainable Buildings Industry Council (SBIC) has expanded the categories in its 2013 Beyond Green High-Performance Building Awards. The program now includes award categories to recognize building projects that focus on enhancing individual building systems or attributes, as well as innovations in design processes, contracting, code administration, insurance and research.

The Beyond Green High-Performance Building Awards recognize those initiatives that shape, inform and catalyze the high-performance building market, as well as the real-world application of high-performance design and construction practices.
