  1. An overview of the Green Building Concept and How it Helps To Achieve Sustainability

  2. In recent times countries across the world are shifting towards environment-friendly practices. Human activities over the past centuries have taken their toll on the environment.

  3. Benefits Of Green Building Reducing our carbon footprint and managing our limited resources while facilitating recycling is our best bet to save a planet already at its limit. Here are some benefits of green building.

  4. Improved Quality Of Life The environment we live in has a huge impact on our health and standard of living. The main aim of green architecture is to focus on sustainable interior design elements such as ergonomic design, improved lighting, optimal temperatures, and superior air quality.

  5. Sharing Of Resources Means Increased Efficiency Big cities are struggling with the problem of over-exploitation of resources. Over-exploitation causes shortages and crises.

  6. Renewable Energy Resources The building is designed in such a way as to optimize the use of energy during construction as well as operational lifetime. Recent innovations in sustainable building services have paved the way to better ventilation and light thereby reducing the dependency on man-made energy sources for what and light.

  7. Minimal Carbon Footprint Carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases generated by our actions. Reports from Environment Protection Agency(EPA) show buildings are responsible for one-third of the greenhouse gas emission in the US.

  8. Design Principles Now let us take a look at some pointers for green building design: Maximize the potential of the site. Energy usage optimization. Prioritize the conservation of water. Optimization of building space and materials. Optimize the operations and maintenance practices.

  9. Opting to build cleaner and greener using the latest innovative technologies not only benefits the residents and environment but also sustainable building services, due to lower operational and material costs and increased asset value. We need drastic measures to preserve our environment. One such environment-friendly practice is green building consulting and engineering.
