Neill Holmes awarded LEED Accredited Professional by
the U. S. Green Building Council.
J. M. (Neill) Holmes, LEED, AP and Director of Marketing for
Triangle Brick Co., was recently awarded the designation of
LEED Accredited Professional by the
U. S. Green Building Council
(USGBC). The USGBC is coordinating the establishment and
evolution of a national consensus effort to provide the building
industry with tools necessary to design, build and operate buildings
that deliver high performance and sustainability.
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification
provides independent, third-party verification that a building
project meets the highest green building and performance measures.
LEED Professional Accreditation distinguishes building professionals
with the knowledge and skills to successfully steward the LEED
Certification process. The LEED AP credential represents knowledge
of the LEED Rating System and its application in practice. LEED
APs facilitate the integrated design process and streamline
the LEED Certification process.*
Neill is glad to respond to your questions concerning LEED Credits
for projects. You may direct your questions through your sales
representative or contact him directly at

Recent Enhancements to the Triangle Brick Website
A number of website enhancements have been completed recently
that will enhance the user experience and improve the site’s
functionality.
On the home page a bright
yellow and gold medallion
has been placed in the “Enter Showroom” area. Its purpose is
to alert the viewer to the New Key Panel in the Product Showroom.
Upon entering the Product Showroom you will notice the yellow
and gold bar highlighting the
“Online Architectural Key
Panel”.
Selecting the Key Panel bar brings up the key panel. Clicking
on an individual sample brings up a brick panel with mortar.
This eliminates the need to return to the showroom to locate
the panel. For brick types that have an example of a commercial
project available, it can be viewed by selecting “Example” in
the upper right corner. You may return to the key panel, as
you would expect, by selecting “Return to the Key Panel” or
clicking the “X” in the popup window.
Other parts of he Showroom have been enhanced as well. The names
of the brick depicted on the thumbnail panels located in the
showroom are now shown in a grey bar just above the thumbnail.
The names are shown as you move the cursor over the thumbnail.
There is no need to click the thumbnail to see the name but
you must click to bring up the panel with mortar.
The new additions to the product line have been placed into
the Product Showroom. Chesapeake Grey is located in the Washed
Tumble section and will appear first when that section is selected.
In the Sand Finished section of the Showroom, Tuscan appears
first and Stone Canyon is positioned next to it.
These website enhancements have been made in response to customer
requests. We will continue to improve the user experience and
ease of use with your input.
Thanks for the collective input.
