摘 要：Green building is becoming more mainstream in the public sector,especially in federal agencies such as the ***-ment of Defense,in a large part due to federal policies requiring more sustainable outcomes in the design and construction of public sector *** policies challenge contracted design professionals by adding new demands to a process already constrained by limited budgets,multiple objectives,and short time *** purpose of this research is twofold:(a)to inventory decision support tools available to aid the green design process,and(b)to investigate approaches for organizing these tools to facilitate tool selection and adoption by designers new to green *** research ap-proach is based on principles of innovation adoption theory,specifically the constructs of relative advantage and trialability of *** 275 design-related tools examined here address the spectrum of green building concepts and represent a range of applicability to different design *** of this research indicate that while considerable investment has been made in developing freely available web-based tools to support design,a relatively small number of those tools are immediately applicable to the task of making Leadership in Energy and Environment Design(LEED)credit determinations for specific *** two characteristics of innovations explored in this research provide a basis for explaining some of the anecdotal observations of tools employed in practice,suggesting a need for further research to confirm and extend the findings.
