What is Green
Building?
●EPA definition: “Green or sustainable building is
the practice of creating healthierand more
resource- efficientmodels of construction,
renovation, operation, maintenance, and
demolition.”
● More than just installing solarpanelson your
roof.
Why is Green Building Important?
●8000lbs of wasteare typically thrown into a
landfill during the construction of a
2000sqft home.
●The buildings in the US consume more than
twice as much energy as all the cars in the
US.
●Buildings account for 68% of total
electricity consumption in the US.
●Buildings use 80% of total
drinking water consumption in
the US.
●Indoor levels of pollution are commonly 2 to 5
times higher than outdoor pollution levels.
Benefits of Green Building
Environmental Benefits:
● Reducewastage of water
● Conserve natural resources
● Improve airand waterquality
● Protect biodiversityand
ecosystems
Economic Benefits
● Reduce operating costs
● Improveoccupantproductivity
● Create market forgreen product and
services
Social Benefits
● Improve quality of life
● Minimizestrain on local
infrastructure
● Improveoccupant health and
comfort

INTRODUCTION :
GREEN BUILDING CONCEPT :
• Green building (also known
construction or sustainable
building)
as green
expands and
complements
the building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and
comfort.
• A Green Building is one which uses less water, optimizes energy
efficiency, conserves natural resources, generates less waste and
provides healthier space for occupants as compared to
conventional buildings.
OBJECTIVES
• Preserve existing Vegetation/or plant new trees.
• Proper timing of Construction w.r.t. rains. Start after Monsoon
and finish before next Monsoon.
• Confine Construction Activity to only few select parts of
the Campus
• Erosion and sedimentation control
• Preserve topsoil and use it for Raised Bed Agriculture
• Waste segregation, recycle and reuse
REASONS AND BENEFITS OF
GREEN BUILDING
• Protect biodiversity and ecosystems
• Improve air and water quality
• Reduce waste streams
• Conserve natural resources
• Enhance occupant comfort and health.
• Heighten aesthetic qualities.
• Minimize strain on local infrastructure.
• Improve overall quality of life.
• Reduced urban island heat effect
• Reduced building heating and cooling effect
• Reduced air pollution and greenhouse gases
• Increased building durability
• Increased health factor both inside and outside building
• Increased water conservation
LITERATURE REVIEW
& METHODOLOGY
Literature review :
We did research on previous Green building projects from internet and other social
media platform to improve and to search new ideas which is benefit for our green
building project.eg WATER EFFICIENT TECHNOLOGIES FOR GREEN BUILDING (Dr K N
Sheth, 2017), COST AND BENEFITS OF GREEN BUILDING (A Nalewail, V Venters, 2008),
ZERO ENERGY BUILDING (Manuel Carlos Felgueirasa, Florinda F. Martinsb & Nídia S.
Caetanoac, 2017)
Methodology :
• Need to explain the concept, aim, differentiation, objective, benefits of our
project
• Read and research on some project, articles, research papers which is related to our
project
• Site selection, data collection, implement of our ideas and concept in real world
in real construction site
• Improvement in our project from previous experience and research
CASE
STUDY
Elements of green building :
1. Site selection
2. Data collection
3. Energy efficiency
4. Water efficiency
5. Material efficiency
Materials and methods :
• Foundation : As the base of all structures, foundations provide the stability
needed
to create a solid and healthy environment. Some builders are finding plastic to
be extremely helpful in laying a foundation. Pouring concrete foundation into
an
insulated concrete form (ICF), which insulated the inside and outside of the
walls helps green building project.
• Green wall : Green wall is a system to attach plants to walls of buildings and
homes. The support system refers to plants which were guided to climb up through
the structures like wires or cables, while the carrier system are plants which were
put into boxes and contain the media for planting on the vertical surfaces and
attached directly to the wall .
• Rooftop garden : A rooftop garden is any garden placed on the roof of a building.
It can provide a lot of advantages not only to the extent of aesthetical appeal but it
also may reduce the temperature, enhance the existing architecture and provide
recreational opportunities. Rooftop gardens could cut off the urban heat island effect,
which will end up decrease air pollution, excessive heat
Flooring: Renewable materials like bamboo and cork to recycled flooring that is
reclaimed from commercial and industrial buildings scheduled for demolition.
Eco
•
friendly flooring like Marmoleum, on the other hand, is made from renewable
materials such as linseed oil and pine flour, making it a far more ecologically-minded
choice than typical vinyl flooring. There are so many options now for green or
recycled flooring that it is easy to obtain the materials to achieve any design style.
Green roof : Green roofs in environmental terms storm water management Green roofs
are one strategy for controlling runoff. Rainfall entering a green roof is stored in the
substrate (soil medium), is absorbed by plants’ root systems, and retained in plant
foliage.
Rainwater
harvesting :
Rainwater harvesting is the collection of rainwater, which falls freely from the sky,
for use as a substitute for potable water, which is costly and in increasingly short
supply in many regions. The water is usually collected from building roof areas, and
diverted from the roof drainage system to a storage tank, where it is held for use.
Solar
panel :
The sun provides an unlimited resource for power around the world. And more and
more people are tapping into that energy for their homes and businesses. Solar power is
becoming a positive energy source for many people who are looking to reduce their
carbon footprint. Despite solar power’s great potential, few people are actually using it.
Solar panel is useful as economically and also its eco-friendly. Solar panel can
decrease the electricity cost in future as we using sun power to generate efficiant
electricity for our daily use.
RESULT AND
CONCLUSION
Result:
The benefits of green design to society in general, and building owners and users in
particular, are manifold. The construction of such buildings results in reduced
destruction of natural habitats and bio-diversity , reduced air and water pollution , less
water consumption, limited waste generation and increased user productivity. With
increasing threat on our planet earth caused by depleting resources and increasing
emissions it is absolutely pertinent that all our future buildings should be designed to
function as “green buildings”.
Conclusion:
• Green building is financially, health and most importantly,
environmentally responsible idea that more people need to adapt.
• Many building materials and renewable energy sources exist to lessen once
impact
upon the environment.
• Through educating, making environmentally products more readily accessible
and reliable and by providing government incentives it is possible to encourage
more
people to adapt green building and all of the benefits that come along with it.
