2. GREEN BUILDINGS
 Green building
 Also known as
green construction or sustainable building
refers to a structure and using process that is
environmentally responsible and resource-
efficient throughout a building's life-cycle
from siting to design, construction, operation,
maintenance, renovation, and demolition.

3. Green buildings are designed 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.
The successful adoption of green building
strategies can maximize both economical and
environmental performances of building

5. GREEN ARCHITECTURE
 Green architecture or Sustainable
design is the philosophy of designing a
building that is in harmony with the natural
features and resources surrounding the
site.
There are several key steps in designing
sustainable buildings: specify 'green'
building materials from local
sources, reduce loads, optimize
systems, and generate on-site renewable
energy.

6. This green architecture is a
regular cycle that moves
around according to the
picture shown above.

7. TECHNOLOGY USED IN GREEN
BUILDINGS
• The technologies employed in green building
are constantly evolving and may differ from
region to region, fundamental principles
persist from which the method is derived:
• Energy Efficiency
• Water Efficiency
• Materials Efficiency
• Indoor Environmental Quality Enhancement
• Operations andMaintenanceOptimization
and
• Waste and Toxics Reduction

8. The techniques associated with green buildings
are measures to prevent soil erosion, water
harvesting, reduction in usage of portable
water, recycling of waste water and use of world
class recycling processes.
Onsite generation of renewable energy through
1.solar power 2.wind power
3.hydro power 4.biomass
can significantly reduce the environmental impact
of the building.
Power generation is generally the most expensive
feature to add to a building.
