Draft content - Energy Audit

Thanks, Jenny--and sorry for the slow response on this! Having this draft Best Practices content for the Energy Audit is perfect for our current design needs.   

I created some very basic mockups of how the Best Practice page would look. They are very similar to credit pages in LEEDuser, though we will likely tweak the colors, font, etc., to mesh better with BITbuilding.org. But this should give you an idea of how this type of content will be presented. Note that this is what a logged-in premium user would see (i.e. someone who registered and paid through Salesforce). Anonymous and logged-in non-premium users would encounter a paywall on all but the "Official language" tab. (I chose the label "Official language" because it was less cumbersome than "Best Practice language" but I am perfectly happy to change it back.) The two attached files show the Official Language and BITuser's Viewpoint tabs.

(The "BITuser expert" is an artifact of the LEEDuser page I copied from.)

Shane provided the following feedback about the Best Practice mockups: We're concerned the draft page presented is too text heavy. Can you recommend/provide graphic strategies and/or visual content to help break up the text? We're also going to review in hopes of paring down the volume of text. There are definitely things we can do to liven up those pages, and it would be helpful to know if they will all have roughly the same subheadings.  For example, here are the subheadings in the two draft sections: Best practice language: 

• Description
• Implementation requirements
• Submittal requirements

BITuser's Viewpoint:

• Readiness review questions
• Related best practices

Do you anticipate having the same sections for all the Best Practices, or do you expect them to vary widely?

Jenny/Dan, does this sound about right? The goal is to have a standard format all will follow- even if some BPs don’t have all the sections/subsections populated. M. Shane Totten, AIA, LEED AP BD+C Program Director, Research + Incubation office: 404.604.3588 F
