HK-BEAM is the local green building rating and assessment tool. According to HK-BEAM (version 4/04), new buildings are rated based on performance in six categories: site, materials, energy use, water use, indoor environmental quality and innovation.
The College expresses its gratitude to Philip Liao and Partners Ltd, the Design and Building Architect, and the Campus Development Office, CUHK, as well as the College's Hostel, Building & Campus Management Committee for their joint effort in creating a green and sustainable environment for students.
