This document provides an overview and summary of a student project presentation on sustainable modifications and innovations for an AutoCAD semester project. It discusses several LEED credits achieved in areas such as sustainable sites, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, material resources, and indoor environmental quality. For each credit, it describes the intent of the credit, what was done to meet the requirements, and includes diagrams and photos as examples. The presentation was made to faculty members and covers sustainable design strategies incorporated into site plans, building designs, mechanical systems, and construction materials.

46. MATERIAL
&
RESOURCES

47. • Intent
• To facilitate the reduction of waste generated
by building occupants that is hauled to and
disposed of in landfills.
• Requirements in LEED documents for the
above intent are:
• Provide an easily-accessible dedicated area or
areas for the collection and storage of
materials for recycling for the entire building.
• Procedure being followed by us is:
• Nearest locality 2 km away from construction
site.
• Roads are available so easily accessible.
• We will also have storage facilities 0.2 Km
from the construction site.
MR Prerequisite 1: Storage and
collection of recyclables:

48. • Intent
• To divert construction and demolition debris
from disposal in landfills and incineration
facilities. Redirect recyclable recovered
resources back to the manufacturing process
and reusable materials to appropriate sites.
• Procedure followed by us:
• For construction waste management we are
going to perform the procedure of composting
of organic materials which are not worth being
reused instead of land filling the organic
products, so that they do not leach into the
ground water. Other non-recyclable materials
will be sent to incinerators or landfills.
MR Credit 2: Construction Waste Management:

49. • Intent
• To reuse building materials and products to reduce
demand for virgin materials and reduce waste,
thereby lessening impacts associated with the
extraction and processing of virgin resources
• Procedure followed by us:
• Thus to avoid wastage of materials we will have
on the spot demands made and then delivery. But
still we have storage facilities made 0.2 km away
from the construction site for materials which
cannot be delivered on the spot.
• catering the wastage of such material we will
include in our agreement with the supplier to use
them in the manufacturing process again for us to
reuse the wasted material this will reduce the
wastage and cost both.
MR Credit 3: Materials Reuse:

50. • Intent
• To increase demand for building materials and
products that are extracted and manufactured
within the region, thereby supporting the use of
indigenous resources and reducing the
environmental impacts resulting from
transportation.
• Procedure opted by us:
• We are using local materials for our
construction . Sources shown on the following
slides.
MR Credit 5: Regional Materials

51. • Meister Construction Materials
• Present in Country/Region: Saudi
Arabia(Riyadh)
• Main Products :Construction Chemicals
,Structural Steel, Recycled Base Oil, Equipments
for special Needs, Juices
MR Credit 5: Regional Materials
Continues…..

52. • The innovation we are using in case of materials
is corncob ash as fine aggregate in light weight
concrete for use in non-structural walls. It’s
source is:
MR Credit 5: Regional Materials
Continues…..
Ash from rice husk from rice
fields , saw dust ash from
nearby places and ash from
nearby incerators
Waste Of Corn i.e corncob
from corn fields near the
university will be
transported to the
construction site on trucks.
Ash also transported from its
respected source
Corncob
Ash
Concrete

53. • THE LINES COLOURED PURPLE ARE SHOWING THE USE OF
CORNCOB ASH CONCRETE IN NON-STRUCTURAL WALLS
MR Credit 5: Regional Materials
Continues…..

54. • Intent
• To reduce the use and depletion of finite raw
materials and long-cycle renewable materials by
replacing them with rapidly renewable
materials.
• Procedure we opted is:
• As we are using corncob and ash aggregate in
our concrete, both the materials are renewable
and are considered as wastage, and also they
are rapidly available again as both have short
production cycles
MR Credit 6: Rapidly Renewable
Materials:

55. • Highly energy efficient , as it has
high thermal mass.
• Indoor air is kept clean.
• Walls will absorb sound.
• Corn cob is immune to termite
attacks.
• Corn cob does not burn.
Properties of corn cob ash.
