SUSTAINABLE DESIGN

Western University's Amit Chakma Engineering Building - LEED Platinum

For 50 years, Chorley + Bisset has been a leader in the field of building energy efficiency. We actively help our Clients reduce their own environmental impact through construction of energy efficient, sustainable buildings. All members of our design team are aware of the environmental impacts of their design decisions, and approach each project with methodologies that ensure sustainability and energy efficiency. We are committed to ensuring the systems we design are efficient, controllable, and maintainable, all of which will increase their sustainability.

LEED Certification

LEED™ accreditation requires demonstration of a comprehensive understanding of green building principles and knowledge of LEED™ requirements, resources and procedures. All of the management team members have earned LEED™ accreditation, making Chorley + Bisset well equipped to lead environmentally responsible and sustainable building engineering projects. We provided the engineering services for the first three LEED buildings in the London area, and our numerous subsequent LEED projects have set the bar high – at the LEED Platinum and Gold levels. Western University's Amit Chakma Engineering Building achieved LEED Platinum and won the Canadian Green Building Council's New Construction Award in 2019. Altogether, we have an extensive portfolio of LEED and carbon footprint focuses projects.
