University of Florida’s LEED Program
In 2001, University of Florida
officially adopted (LEED) for its
major renovation and new
construction projects
Starting 2006, Minimum Silver
LEED certification required
University of Florida’s LEED Program
LEED standards is first and foremost tool that enables a design
team all the way through the design and construction process
Over the last 5 years UF has used this tool to the benefit of projects
all over University resulting in an entirely new breed of buildings
at UF, the LEED certified green buildings
This new generation of University of Florida building represents a
giant step forward for the university
Why UF Adopted LEED
As an educator plays a leading role in training leaders
to make difference in the world
UF consumes significant resources
Students will have major environmental Impact as
consumers, conservers when depart campus
Why UF Adopted LEED
•Be proactive in taking positive steps toward saving the environment
•Save Energy
•Occupants well being
•Lead
•Educate
It is the “right” thing to do!

Project Facts
CGRC Fun Facts
• 19,100 CY of concrete was installed for the
building structure. Total weight of poured
concrete was in excess of 77,000,000 lbs.
• If this amount of concrete was poured into a
continuous 4’ wide sidewalk that is 4” thick, it
would stretch for 75 miles. This represents a
sidewalk from Gainesville to Daytona Beach, as
the crow flies.
• The cast in place concrete contained over
3,800,000 lbs of reinforcing steel, which is 100%
recycled material
• Approximately 700,000 feet of wiring was used
throughout the building.
• Over 1.2 million man-hour was spent to build this
building.

The process focuses on verifying
and documenting that the facility
and all of its systems and
assemblies are planned, designed,
installed, tested, operated and
maintained to meet the Owner’s
Project Requirements.

Comparison calculation for the use of thin brick vs. full bed
depth brick
1) 100,000 sf of thin brick equates to 675,000 pieces of full bed depth
brick
2) Modular size bricks 3-5/8” x 2-1/4” x 7-5/8”; Thin brick, 5/8” x 21/4” x 7-5/8”
3) Shipping distance for raw materials: 12 miles and trucks return to
mine empty (24-mile round trip)
4) Shipping distance for finished product: 980 miles
5) Modular-size brick creates job site and construction waste vs thin
brick which produces Zero construction waste.
6) Fuel mileage for all trucking: 8.0 miles per gallon.
7) Diesel fuel cost: $2.80 per gallon
8) 10% loss on ignition (organic materials burned during kiln firing)
9) All trucking capacities: 45,000 lbs.
10) Natural gas cost delivered to plant : $12/ mmbtu
