Vectorworks to host webinar on water-efficient design
Vectorworks will present “Integrating Design Technology for Water Efficient Landscapes” webinar on Thursday, Aug. 19, from 2-3 p.m. EST.
Eric Gilbey, Vectorworks’ landscape product marketing manager, will explain how sustainability has evolved from a concept to a reality and how Vectorworks’ design software is vital in making a sound transition into a sustainable design.
Attendees will:
- Learn how to quickly define hydrozones that report water needs and areas.
- Recognize how documentation time is saved with prebuilt MWELO and EPA worksheets that tabulate a project’s landscape water requirement (LWR)/estimated total water use (ETWU) and compare to its landscape water allowance (LWA)/maximum applied water allowance (MAWA).
- Understand design strategies used to incorporate non-potable water collection elements.
- Recognize how water needs data can be appended to reusable plant symbols, which can quickly fulfill your LEED/Sustainable Sites Initiative/Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) compliant proposed landscape plan.
