Levantamento dos aspectos relacionados ao projeto paisagístico presentes nas certificações de desempenho ambiental de edificações LEED e AQUA

Abstract

This work is related to the process of landscape design considering multidisciplinary teamwork and systematization of solutions able to meet the LEED and AQUA certification of buildings. Were examined by analysis and comparison between the two certification processes in aspects of landscaping and its interfaces with other design disciplines. The use of vegetation in the cities and surrounding buildings brings many benefits and landscaping contributes to LEED and AQUA buildings inseveral requirements that were analyzed in the case study - University Campus in Itabira , Minas Gerais, in which the author was part of team of landscape design. The analysis was based on references and experience with LEED. It was found that in the process AQUA, the categories that are related to landscaping are: Relationshipbuilding with its surroundings, Construction site with low environmental impact, water management, waste management use and operation of the building and Comfort hygrothermal. In the LEED criteria were analyzed efficiency of water use, sustainable space (local development, green areas), sustainable space (local development, construction areas free), Reduced heat island effect (uncovered areas) and Reduction islands heat (cover). The use of green roofs and native plant speciesadapted to the site and some of the solutions were presented for both. So, it was concluded that the criteria as implantation (the location of the building and its surroundings), the construction site, the management of water use, waste management and thermal comfort are present in both certifications processes. Becoming incentives to improve the buildings and minimizing negative impacts to the environment .
