Green building (also known as green construction or sustainable building) refers to both a structure and the application of processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle: from planning to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition.[1] This requires close cooperation of the contractor, the architects, the engineers, and the client at all project stages.[2] The Green Building practice expands and complements the classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort.[3] Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a set of rating systems for the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of green buildings which was Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council. Other certificates system that confirms the sustainability of buildings is the British BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) for buildings and large-scale developments. Currently, World Green Building Council is conducting research on the effects of green buildings on the health and productivity of their users and is working with World Bank to promote Green Buildings in Emerging Markets through EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies) Market Transformation Program and certification.[4] There are also other tools such as Green Star in Australia and the Green Building Index (GBI) predominantly used in Malaysia. Although new technologies are constantly being developed to complement current practices in creating greener structures, the common objective of green buildings is to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by: Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity Reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation

3. GREEN BUILDING
 When it comes to the term “Green Buildings,” we may just define it as a speci
al kind of building without knowing the details and background behind it.
 Actually, Green Buildings consist of many different kinds of material and equi
pment. Their appearances also differ from other normal buildings.
 It is the practice of increasing efficiency with which buildings use resources- e
nergy, water and materials-while reducing building impacts on human health a
nd the environment.”

4. Concept
 The `Green Building' concept is gaining importance in v
arious countries, including India.
 These are buildings that ensure that waste is
minimized at every stage during the
construction and operation of the building, resul
ting in low costs, according to experts in the technology.

5. The techniques associated with the `Gr
een Building' include measures,
 To prevent erosion of soil.
 Rainwater harvesting.
 Use of solar energy.
 Preparation of landscapes to reduce heat.
 Reduction in usage of water.
 Recycling of waste water and use of world class energy
efficient practices.
A similar concept is natural building, which is usually on a s
maller scale and tends to focus on the use of natural mat
erials that are available locally.

6. How To Make Green Building?
 A green building is a structure th
at is environmentally responsible
and resource-efficient throughout
its life-cycle.
OBJECTIVES
Expand and complement the cla
ssical building design, concerns
of economy, utility, durability and
comfort.

clay of the brick,
 37% More strength than burnt bricks
 Resistant for cold and wet climate

11. Sustainable Concrete
 Crushed glass.
 Wood chips or slag - a bypro
duct of steel manufacturing.
 Reduces the emission of CO2.

 Exist to simply protect a
building
 They spend a large porti
on of the day absorbing e
nergy from the sun.

23. CONCLUSION:
23
 Nowadays, we should make a way to maximize our natural r
esources and also help our mother earth to get some relief since polluti
on is everywhere plus the global warming that we are all experiencing.
 Non-renewable energy is expensive and unsafe but did you
know that through green building we can save a lot of energy.
 Before that, let's define first the meaning of green building (
know also as green construction is the practice of creating structures an
d using processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-eff
icient throughout a building's life-cycle: from siting to design, construct
ion, operation, maintenance, renovation, and deconstruction.
 The importance of this is it lessen the consume of energy an
d the pollution as well because the more we use nonrenewable energy t
he higher the risk of pollution.
