Promotion of Green Building Technology
construction of green building is a technology to use all resources efficiently for the creation of human habitats which improve human health, a better environment to increase the efficiency of the work of people and minimize the cost of buildings. Green buildings are as sustainable building, known in design, built, renovated, operated and used in an ecological and resource efficiency.
In fact, green building design to allow for certain goals such as protecting occupant health justice, improve employee productivity, use of energy, water and other resources more efficiently and reduce the overall impact of the environment. These buildings with good overall environmental quality can improve the rate of respiratory illnesses, allergies, asthma, sick building symptoms, and the employee performance. The technology of green building include: –
Elements of Green Building Construction Technology
1. ventilation
Green buildings provide adequate ventilation for all rooms, including bathrooms, kitchen with high efficiency filtration system in the channels to allow for proper drainage of air conditioning coils, including moisture control heating and cooling systems for the air quality inside.
2. prevent microbial contamination inside
As part of this technology are construction and finishing works selected materials with zero or low emissions, improve air quality inside. Many building materials and cleaning / maintenance products toxic gases such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and formaldehyde gas, which results in a negative impact on health and productivity of occupants. These products should not be used in the construction and equipment.
3. use of recycled materials to minimize construction costs
Demolition and reconstruction of old buildings is an ongoing phenomenon. Population and the demand for buildings is increasing day by day so that our resources are exhausted in the same proportion. Building construction activities consume one-sixth of withdrawals in the world of fresh water, a quarter of the wood harvest and two fifths of its material and energy flows. can be reused or recycled more than 22 percent of the waste (brick, concrete, wood, steel, metals, steel pipes, plastic pipes, electrical son, sanitary materials, etc.) from demolished buildings, then extended our range of natural resources and reducing construction costs. is used in “green” buildings, about 25% recycled material.
4. Installation of glass panels
Instead of wood panels are installed window glass green buildings to allow the flow of natural light inside the building during the day.
5. installation of rainwater harvesting systems
Green buildings are well equipped with water recovery system to preserve depleting water resources.
6. Maximize use of renewable natural resources
/>
To maximize the use of renewable natural resources in “green” buildings, energy-saving devices such as compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) and solar water heaters, etc. based on non-conventional energy sources are installed.
7. minimize the use of resources
Since then, forest cover is depleting day by day in the world, therefore the use of fresh wood minimized in green buildings. Everywhere, the use of wood is considered necessary in such buildings, the wood of fast growing trees, so that the use of the image material is not possible to use the ecological balance of the earth.
8. Minimize the energy consumption in buildings green
Green buildings are to be minimized with the censorship of energy to the energy efficiency of buildings secured. If there is nobody in a room, the lights go off automatically.
9. water conservation and efficiency measures in green buildings
In the “green” buildings used water in the most efficient manner. Grey water from baths is recycled back to toilets.
10. proper disposal of waste
Garbage Green Building is properly handled, placed and removed as per building bye laws of the respective committees, Civic waste in biodegradable and non biodegradable.
11. lawn care
In green buildings, open spaces are good with the preservation of green building healthy environment safe.
