Abstract: Chapter 3 discusses the parameters and principles of green design and construction (e.g., site selection, energy efficiency) and the adoption of the new national building code and its impact on the construction industry. The chapter looks at high-performance and intelligent buildings, BIM, and high-performance design strategies and design process for high-performance buildings, as well as the integrated design process (IDP) and the integrated multidisciplinary project team. Green project delivery systems are analyzed including the traditional green design−bid−build project delivery, green construction management method, and the green design–build project delivery method. The advantages and disadvantages of the various delivery methods are outlined.
