GREEN BUILDING FOR QUALITY LIVING

The practice of increasing the efficiency with which buildings and their sites use energy, water, andmaterials, and reducing building impacts on human health and the environment, through better sitting, design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal—the complete building life cycle. The practice of creating structures and using processes that is environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building’s life-cycle from sitting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation and deconstruction. This practice expands and complements the classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort. Green building is also known as a sustainable or ‘high performance’ building. Both of these definitions mention life cycle assessment (LCA). LCA is the investigation and valuation of the environmental, economic, and social impacts of a product or service in the context of green buildings. LCA evaluates building materials over the course of their entire lives and takes into account a full range of environment impacts, including materials embodied energy: the solid waste generated in its extraction, use and disposal: the air and water pollution associated with it: and its global warming potential. LCA is an import green. The most important element: the efficient use of energy building can incorporate manant tool because it can demonstrate whether a product used in a green building is truly y green features, but if they do not use energy efficiently, it is difficult to demonstrate that they are truly green. In fact, given that the term “green Building” can be somewhat vague, some people prefer to use the term “high performance building”. A high performance building is a building whose energy efficiency and environmental performance is substantially better than standard practices. Although green buildings, on averageuse less energy than conventional buildings. Energy efficiency remains elusive. In fact, th
