Using sunlight through passive solar, active solar and photovoltaic techniques and using plants and trees through green roofs,rain gardens and reduction of rainwater run-off.
OBJECTIVESS OF STUDY:-
1. To study the various aspects of Green Building.
2. To find alternative materials for Green Building.
3. To know benefits of Green Building.
4. To suggest alternative to make a building green.
5. To demonstrate example of Green Building.
WHAT IS GREEN BUILDING:-
Green Building (also known as Green Construction or sustainable Building)
Greenn Building is environmental friendly.these not only help for the environment but also give health and happiness to the people living in these houses.green building produce electricity with Solar energy. CFL bulbs, five star domestic appliances are used more and these buildings also utilise Solar energy as much as possible. 70% of water wastage is prevented.the water used in the home is diverted to Water the plants and for other uses.experts say that the expense of construction this type of houses is 8 to 10% more when compared to normal construction. but money can be saved by saving water and power Bills.
Greenn Building refers to a structure and using process that is environmentally responsible and resource efficient throughout a building life cycle.that means right from siting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation and demolition.
Although new technologies are constantly being developed to complement current practices in creating greener structures the common objective is that green Building are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human and the natural environment by,
- Efficiently using energy, water and resources.
- Protecting occupant health and improving employees productivity.
- Reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation.
Green Building can be built either directly or interiors of existing building can be converted into a green Building according to guide.
Recycled material is used in the Construction of these houses. Special bricks to tiles are available in the market for Green Building. Green furniture in also available in the market
