RETROFITTING OF AN EXISTING BUILDING INTO A GREEN BUILDING

Abstract

Retrofitting of an existing building into a green building taking into account the aspects of energy, water and materials along with cost considerations such that the occupant well-being, environmental performance and economic returns are improved. In the present project we have proposed to give credits to rate the chosen building for its various green features according to the rating system of LEED and suggest measures to improve the green performance of the building.
