520 |aThis is a report on the third phase of an assessment of existing environmental assessment methods with the intent of identifying the basis for a comprehensive multifamily residential assessment tool. CMHC wishes to identify the requirements of a comprehensive tool to assess energy and resource use, durability, environmental impact, indoor air quality and a host of other areas in multifamily residential buildings. The assessment tool is needed to: -evaluate sustainable building projects; -raise industry and consumer awareness of sustainable building issues; -assess compliance with future sustainable building regulations; -assess the impact of energy retrofits on existing buildings. Most of the tools in use were developed for commercial offices and may not adequately assess multifamily buildings. CMHC wished to identify elements of the existing commercial tools adaptable to multifamily buildings, while developing other elements that were underdeveloped or missing. Phase III was to utilize an existing environmental assessment tool to evaluate the green performance of four existing multifamily buildings. The "GBC '98 Assessment Manual: Volume 4: Multi-Unit Residential Buildings" was chosen as the assessment methodology. Three of the buildings were recently constructed advanced buildings, while the fourth building was a market-ready condominium built in the early 1980's with a number of advanced features and amenities for the times.
