Where there is fast development in science and

technology….
Our lifestyle has changed and our standard of living is
increased….

But during this development we are ignoring one thing

………
Green Building is a
building which utilizes
very less external
energy and is capable
of producing ample
amount of energy
without causing any
harm to the
environment .
 Increased property value.
 Increased return on investment.
 Enhanced occupant health and well-
being..
 Boost occupant productivity.
 Increased sales and leasing potential
Green Building Material
Solid Waste Management
Non conventional energy resources
Indoor Air Quality
Site Selection
Water Use Efficiency
Waste Water Recycling
Materials and Resources

• Design an adequate method and

area for separation,collection, and
storage of recycled materials including:

– Paper

– Cardboard

– Glass

– Plastics

– Metals
Solar panels
100 to 200 watts of energy per panel
The non conventional energy
resources can be utilized with
the aid of
Various equipment such as:
1. Solar heater.
2. Solar geyser.
3. Solar batteries.
Solar water
heater
 Water
 TOOVERCOME THIS PROBLEM WE ARE
USING ONE MORE PRINCIPLE IN GREEN
BUILDING THAT IS
 To increase the groundwater table level.
 To maintain the water level as constant in the
subsurface sources.
 To improve the quality of water in the
subsurface sources.
 The boundary of rainwater can meet all the
reasonable need of mankind if the rainwater is
harvested, stored and utilized effectively.
Avoid building on (5 criteria):-
 • Prime agricultural land
 • Land less than 5 feet above
 The 100-year flood plain
 • Within 100 feet of wetlands
 • Threatened species habitat
 • Prior public parkland
 INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Mechanical Rooms Insulated
 • Range Hood Vented to Outside
 • Fireplace Combustion Gases Prohibited
 • CO Detector per 1,000 S.F.
 • Ducts must be Sealed with Mastic
 • Requirements for Total Duct Leakage
 • Exterior Ventilation Requirement
 • Electronic/Electrostatic Air Cleaner Option(s)
 • Central Vacuum (if installed) Vents to Outside
 • Sheet Metal Plenums (on supply side)
 Water Efficient
Landscaping: -
 Use micro
Irrigation or capture
Water to reduce
Irrigation by 50%
 Use only
Captured water or
Install no permanent
Irrigation system
 Solid waste can be defined as material that
no longer has any value to the person who is
responsible for it, and is not intended to be
discharged through a pipe. It does not
normally include human excreta. It is
generated by domestic, commercial,
industrial, healthcare, agricultural and
mineral extraction activities and
accumulates in streets and public places.
The words “garbage”, “trash”, “refuse” and
“rubbish” is used to refer to some forms of
solid waste.
 Compost is created by the decomposition of
organic matter such as yard waste. Compost
systems confine compost so that it can
receive air and create suitable temperatures
for proper decomposition into fertilizer.
 Grey water is defined as the wastewater produced
from baths and showers, clothes washers, and
lavatories. The wastewater generated by toilets, kitchen
sinks, and dishwashers are called black water

 The use of grey water for irrigation requires separate

black water and grey water waste lines in the house.
This is not a difficult task in new construction but can
be problematic in existing buildings.
 The recycled waste water and quantity of water
obtained by recycling will cause great saving
in treated water.
 The percolation of waste water in ground will
increase the level of ground water recharge.
 In today’s age where ‘Energy crisis’ is major problem.
Green building gives brilliant solution for this. These
are designed to use minimum energy. All the systems
for cooling and heating are designed such that they
require very less energy.
 Green buildings are also capable of producing
electricity on domestic level with non-conventional
energy sources.
 In today’s era green buildings are essential as
environmental balance is very important for survival
and further development of human beings.
 Green buildings are only way to a sustainable
future!!!!
 TheEnergy and Resources Institute
(TERI)
TERI was formally established in 1974 with the purpose of
tackling and dealing with the immense and acute
problems that mankind is likely to be faced with in the
years ahead
1)on account of the gradual depletion of the earth’s finite
energy resources which are largely non-renewable and
2)on account of the existing methods of their use which
are polluting
