Green Building

Green building are refers to both a structure and the using of processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle: from sitting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition.

 According the above definition we can say these kinds of buildings are more eco friendly & sustainable or ‘high performance’ building than other buildings. Green building is a holistic concept that starts with the understanding that the built environment can have profound effects, both positive and negative, on the natural environment, as well as the people who inhabit buildings every day. Green building is an effort to amplify the positive and mitigate the negative of these effects throughout the entire life cycle of a building.

While there are many different definitions of green building out there, it is generally accepted as the planning, design, construction, and operations of buildings with several central, foremost considerations: energy use, water use, indoor environmental quality, material section and the building's effects on its site.

·         Material efficiency

Material should be use that can be recycled and can generate surplus amount of energy. An example of this is solar power panels not only they provide lightening but they are also a useful energy source

·         Waste & Reduction

It is probable to reuse resources. What may be waste to us may have another benefit to something else.

·         Structure efficiency

It is the concept of sustainable building and has largest impact on cost and performance. It aims to minimize the environment impact associated with all life cycles.

·         Energy efficiency

The layout of the construction can be strategized so that natural light pours for additional warmth

Shading the roof with trees offers an eco friendly alternative to air conditioning.

·         Water efficiency

To minimize water consumption one should aim to use the water which has been collected, used purified and reused.

Present we are facing lots of environmental issues under this situation green building concept will help us to heal the world make it a better place for me and for you and for the entire human being. As well as I think planners will be going up through green city and building concept soon.
