Climate Resilience Assessment
Required (New Construction and Core and Shell); N/A pointsTo encourage a thorough, forward-looking evaluation of observed, projected, and future natural hazards so that a project can raise hazard awareness, make risks transparent, lower vulnerabilities, and secure long-term safety and durability.
鼓励对项目所在地已出现、预测及未来可能面临的自然灾害进行全面且具有前瞻性的评估,从而提升灾害认知、公开风险状况、降低脆弱性,并确保建筑长期的 safety 与耐久性。
Complete a climate and natural hazard assessment covering site-specific hazards (e.g., drought, extreme heat/cold, flooding, hurricanes, wildfire, sea level rise, tornadoes, landslides). Identify at least two priority hazards and, for each, document the IPCC emissions scenario (SSP), projected service life, hazard level, risk rating, and exposure, sensitivity, adaptive capacity, vulnerability, and overall risk. Feed the findings into planning, design, and operations; describe how strategies respond to the priority hazards. Use the USGBC template or an equivalent tool.
完成一份气候与自然灾害评估,涵盖场地特有的各类灾害(如干旱、极端冷热、洪涝、飓风、野火、海平面上升、龙卷风、滑坡等)。至少确定两项优先灾害,并对每一项记录 IPCC 排放情景(SSP)、预期使用年限、灾害等级、风险评级,以及暴露度、敏感性、适应能力、脆弱性与整体风险。将评估结果用于规划、设计与运营,并说明所采取策略如何回应优先灾害。可使用 USGBC 模板或等效工具完成。
- Start the assessment in pre-design and engage local hazard mitigation plans, FEMA/NOAA tools, and stakeholder input.
- Select an IPCC SSP scenario and define a design service life (e.g., to FY2050 or 100 years) appropriate to project risk and lifespan.
- Evaluate each hazard through exposure, sensitivity, adaptive capacity, vulnerability, and overall risk to set priorities.
- Document at least two priority hazards in the USGBC template and develop an action narrative linking them to design/operations strategies.
- Use the findings to inform resilient site and system design (e.g., elevated foundations, permeable paving) and align with relevant LEED credits.
- 在设计前期就启动评估,并参考地方减灾规划、FEMA/NOAA 工具以及利益相关方意见。
- 选择适宜的 IPCC SSP 情景,并界定设计使用年限(如至 2050 财年或 100 年),需与项目风险和使用寿命相匹配。
- 从暴露度、敏感性、适应能力、脆弱性与整体风险等维度评估每个灾害以排出优先级。
- 在 USGBC 模板中记录至少两项优先灾害,并撰写将灾害与设计/运营策略相联系的行动说明。
- 将评估结果用于指导韧性场地与系统设计(如抬高基础、透水铺装),并与相关 LEED 得分项相衔接。
