GREEN BUILDING STRATEGIES & PROJECT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES FOR A SUSTAINABLE FU...Raghavendra Rachamadugu
Buildings and homes (or the “built environment”) affects natural environment. Buildings, where people spend 90% of their time, adversely impact human health. Buildings also account for 40% of energy and 16% of the water used annually worldwide. Air quality inside buildings is 2 to 5 times worse than outside
There are many factors to consider while studying the impacts of buildings
• Land use and ecosystems where buildings are built
• Materials and practices used to construct buildings
• Material, chemical, energy and water resources used to maintain and operate buildings
• Demolition and waste of a building at the end of its life
Green Building involves minimizing these negative environmental and human health impacts and enhancing positive results throughout the building’s entire life cycle. In addition to environmental benefits, through integrated design, they can be constructed at the same or lower cost than conventional buildings.
Today, buildings are responsible for more than 40% of global energy used, and as much as one third of global greenhouse gas emissions, both in developed and developing countries. In absolute terms, it is estimated that building-related GHG emissions to be around 8.6 billion metric tons CO2 eqv in 2004. What is particularly worrying is the rate of growth of emissions: between 1971 and 2004, carbon dioxide emissions, including through the use of electricity in buildings is estimated to have grown at a rate of 2.5% per year for commercial buildings and at 1.7% per year for residential buildings. Furthermore, the Buildings and Construction Sector is also responsible for significant non-CO2 GHG emissions such as halocarbons, CFCs, and HCFCs (covered under the Montreal Protocol), and hydro fluorocarbons (HFCs), due to their applications for cooling, refrigeration, and in the case of halocarbons, insulation materials. According to a survey published in 2007, one-third of population believe that global warming is the world’s most critical environmental problem, nearly double the amount of people who agreed with the same statement in 2006 Faiola and Shulman 2007.INDIRA PARYAVARAN BHAVAN- Case study/ Net Zero Energy Building/ Sustainable B...

Appropriate technology part 1
- There is a need for alternative and appropriate technologies in construction due to the large housing shortage and constraints on materials and resources. Labor-based construction programs using local materials can help address this need.
- Appropriate technologies should follow principles like energy conservation, using local and renewable materials, and minimizing environmental impact. Waste materials from industries can be used to make building materials.
- Low-cost and appropriate technologies do not compromise on quality or strength while using less capital and resources. They are developed based on local needs and capabilities.
- Research institutions are developing appropriate technologies like stabilized mud blocks, mud plasters, and vaulted roofs that utilize local materials and labor to lower costs.
Green building
Green building involves constructing and renovating buildings using processes and materials that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle. Typical construction waste from a home amounts to 8000 pounds, while buildings consume over half of total U.S. electricity. Green building aims to reduce waste, energy and water usage during construction, design efficient buildings, and select sustainable materials. However, higher costs and concerns over comfort present obstacles, though programs like LEED and government incentives increasingly support green building.
GREEN BUILDING
The document summarizes the Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment (GRIHA) system, India's national rating system for green buildings. GRIHA provides a framework to design, construct and operate resource efficient and environmentally friendly buildings. It evaluates buildings based on 27 criteria related to site selection, water and energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality, and other sustainability factors. The rating system aims to promote sustainable construction practices and reduced environmental impact of buildings.

NET ZERO ENERGY BUILDING
Buildings like machines, remain major consumers of energy and resources. Critical issue in buildings shall remain; what kind of energy is used by the buildings- in majority of cases ,it is black energy, generated by burning coal, which is used in buildings. Buildings have not only to migrate from energy efficiency but have also to ensure that energy used is green and not black . Solar ,wind and geo-thermal energy remains the best options. While solar and wind energies are to be captured whereas geo-thermal energy is available within the building. However, technology is yet to catch up the geo- thermal energy.
Building design, material and construction technologies remain critical for any building to become zero-energy. Infact buildings have to graduate from zero-energy position to Energy positive .In achieving the agenda the role of architects will be critical. Infact designing and constructing energy positive building should be embedded in the study curricula of both architecture and civil engineering in order to achieve the defined agenda of energy optimization.
