Intended for architects, lab planners, and engineers, this is a comprehensive book on the sustainable design of research laboratories. Written by a well–known firm, KlingStubbins, which has designed many laboratory buildings, the book will have information on integrated design, site design, programming and planning, building materials, and the interiors of labs. A number of case studies of the best contemporary sustainably designed labs will be included along with examination on how the LEED rating system can be applied to laboratory buildings.
