This document discusses eco-friendly construction techniques. It begins with an introduction defining eco-friendly construction as building in a way that is beneficial and non-harmful to the environment and uses resources efficiently. It then covers the need for eco-friendly construction due to growth in construction negatively impacting resources and the environment. The objectives are outlined as conserving resources and minimizing environmental impact. Techniques discussed include green roofs, rainwater harvesting, solar equipment, and use of materials like aero tiles, aero bricks, and wood fibers. Benefits are reducing costs, waste and environmental impact while enhancing health. Case studies of eco-lodges in Spain and a children's center are presented. The conclusion restates that eco-

3. What is “ECOFRIENDLY CONSTRUCTION”?
 “Eco-friendly or Ecological construction” is
building a structure that is beneficial or non-
harmful to the environment, and resource
efficient.
 Eco-friendly construction has developed in
response to the knowledge that buildings have an
often negative impact upon our environment and
our natural resources.
 “GREEN BUILDING” is a Good example of
ECOFRIENDLY CONSTRUCTION.

4. NEED
 Growth in the construction industry that depends
upon Reducible resources.
 Production of building materials leads to irreversible
environmental impacts.
 Negative impact on the energy required to transport
Conventional Building Material, and also in emissions
of hazardous chemicals from a poorly designed
building.

5. OBJECTIVES & SCOPE
 To Conservation of natural resources.
 To Minimize impact on the local infrastructure.
 To Reduction of construction waste sent to landfills.
 To Develop new methods of work and manufacturing
that are less harmful to the environment.

6. TECHNIQUES
 Green Roofs.
 Rain Water Harvesting.
 Solar Equipment.
 Aero Tiles & Aero Bricks.
 Wood Fibers

13. FEATURES
 Reuse, Reduction & Low Emission are the Main
Features of Green Building.
 Low energy light bulbs, which can last up to 100 times
longer than regular bulbs.
 Locally-grown and harvested timber
 Simple collection and recycling of rain water by
Rainwater Harvesting System.
 Use of solar panels.

14. MERITS
 Energy, Water & Material efficient.
 Waste reduction.
 Cost Saving.
 Minimize Impact on Environment.
 Locally available material used so Low Transportation
Cost.
 Community & Social Benefits.
 Enhanced Health & Productivity of Occupants.

15. CASE
STUDIES

16. •Stunning Eco-
Lodge in Spain.
Built from tough
European Oak which are
highly insulated to
withstand the harsh
environment.
Not even a single tree was
felled to make way for the
holiday homes.
They are constructed
totally from wood. It keeps
the lodges comfortably cool
in summer but warm in
winter .
A small family of eco-
lodges in Spain could well
be one of the most
attractive sustainable
development.

17. • Award Winning
Sustainable Children's
Centre
Energy Saving
Features
Rainwater
Harvesting System
contributes 17.5 % of
all water
requirements.
centre’s power
usage is running at
99 kwh per
sq.m.against the
average use in
similar buildings of
370kwh.

18. CONCLUSION
From above presentation,It is Conclude that By Using
ECOFRIENDLY CONSTRUCTION techniques
Following optimisation done:
1. Reduction of Envirnomental
Pollution.
2. Economical.
3. Enhancement of Health.
4. Saves Natural Resources.
