What is mean by Green Building
Green building uses construction practices and materials that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient from the design phase through to maintenance, and ideally to renovation and deconstruction as well.
Green Building Materials
Sustainability and environmental friendliness are two key requirements to green building materials.
use of metal in residential and commercial construction.
Green Building Benefits
The most fundamental benefit of Green Building is that it is environmentally friendly and safe for people occupying the building.
Another important benefit of Green Building is Energy Efficiency
Green Energy Generation Systems
Solar Power System :-
The use of solar energy in green building can provide free electricity for the building owners.
Wind Turbine Energy :-
Another to generate electricity is through the use of wind energy.
Costs and Prices
Initial cost is high but long life.
A building can be considered green without garnering a Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification. LEED certification typically costs around $2 000, as of 2009.

What is a GREEN BUILDING ?
A Green Building is one, which incorporates several Green features
The appearance of a Green Building will be similar to any other building
The difference is in the approach - which revolves round a concern for :
extending the life span of natural resources
providing human comfort
safety and productivity
What are GREEN FEATURES ?
Minimal disturbance to landscapes and site condition
Use of Recycled and Environmental Friendly Building Materials
Use of Non-Toxic and recycled/recyclable Materials
Efficient use of Water and Water Recycling
Use of Energy Efficient and Eco-Friendly Equipment
Use of Renewable Energy
Quality of Indoor Air Quality for Human Safety and Comfort
Effective Controls and Building Management Systems
Benefits of a GREEN BUILDING
a lighter ecological footprint
reduction in operating energy
reduction in water costs
reduction in first costs and enhanced asset value
increased productivity of occupants
health and safety benefits
REAL BARRIERS TO GO GREEN
a lack of planning and developer education
a lack of knowledge about local vendors and resources
difficult local land use officials
Rather than taking the initiative, several developers only work to improve business practices when competition forces them to do so

The Buildings are part of basic needs. It is for protecting us from Nature's extremes: cold, heat, wind and Rain. But these structures affect and shape our environment too. Constructing and op-erating buildings requires enormous amounts of energy, water, and materials and creates large amounts of waste. Where and how they are built affects the ecosystems around us in countless ways. And the buildings themselves create new indoor environments that present new environ-mental problems and challenges.

As the environmental impact of buildings becomes more apparent, a new field called green building is Arising to reduce that impact at the source. Green or sustainable building is the practice of creating healthier and more resource-efficient models of construction, renova-tion, operation, maintenance, and demolition.


Green building is a rational response to two driving forces firstly, a new set of resource constraints facing the globe and secondly, to a demand for healthier, more productive environments for users. Green building is a natural evolution of the building sector, responding to an emerging set of economic forces. It is not a passing fad, but the way things will have to be done in future

The concept of Green Building is essentially based on the premise that economic development and urbanisation need not go against the flow of nature. Green Building principles reflect through the complete building life cycle and are aimed at reducing impact upon the environment. The essential element of green building is to make the most efficient use of resources such as energy, water and material, and to ensure that the building maintenance activities do not burden the environment.
