REVIEW ON GREEN BUILDING

Abstract

As we know today exist a vast and varied literature on the structural designs of buildings the world over .It would be no exaggeration to say that high tech applications in construction technology have vastly benefitted the mankind today as never before. However the application of green technology to structural designed construction of buildings is only of recent origin. Building have major environmental impacts over their entire life. Cycle. Resources such as ground cover. Forests, water and energy are depleted to construct and operate buildings. A green building is one which use less water, optimizes energy. Efficiency, conserves natural resources, generates less waste and provides heal their space for occupants, as compare to conventional building. Green building has been define as the practice of creating structures and using process that are environmentally responsible and resource efficient throughout a building life building’s life cycle from site to design , construction operation , maintenance ,renovation and deconstruction . A eco friendly building, which puts less strain on the natural resources and function with lesser wastages, better efficiencies, is more habitable and pleasant to live in. In recent year green building has become the most important product for the sustainable development. A green building is a building which is design constructed or operated to reduce or eliminate the negative impact and create a positive impact on our climate and surrounding. Green building construction providers may environmental, economical as own as social benefits. This paper will give us a idea about as well as advantages and disadvantages about green building and we will also discuss about the use of waste aggregates and green concrete in the construction of green building. Key words: Green building Aggregates, Sustainable development , Leeds, Energy efficient building.
