A Basic Study on Construction Costs Comparison between LEED and non-LEED Certified Educational Buildings

Currently, the environmental certification such as BREEAM and LEED has been improved for the sustainable development and related research is conducted continuously. Especially, in the respect of economy, it is reported that the construction costs of the certified buildings are more increased than non-certified buildings. However, the report has not focused on the educational building but the residential and commercial buildings. Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze the difference of construction costs between LEED and Non-LEED educational buildings. To achieve the objective, the buildings data are collected in 21 universities then T-test is used for examining the construction costs. As a result, it shows that the construction costs of LEED buildings are increased by 3.8% comparing with non-LEED buildings.
