GRIHA
1. GRIHA-Green Rating for Integrated Habitat
Assessment
Tool to facilitate design, construction, operation of a green
building ,and in turn ….measure “greenness” of a
building in India
What gets measured gets managed

5. KEY HIGHLIGHTS OF GRIHA
•Sets out guidelines for design, construction and operation
•Combination of qualitative and quantitative criteria
•Sets performances benchmarks for key resources like, energy
and water
•Facilitates integration of traditional knowledge on architecture
with present day technology
•Integrates all relevant Indian codes and standards(e.g National
building code 2005, Energy Conservation Building Code 2007,
IS codes)
•Is in complete alignment with government policies and
programs (e.g Environmental clearance by the MoEF)

9. Can you design a green building?
• By following regional development plans (such as the UDPFI
guidelines, master plans) and local building by-laws
• Byfollowing India’s national codes and standards
• By optimizing site conditions (trees, water bodies, wind-flow,
orientation, etc.) and harnessing them to cater to the
thermal / visual comfort requirements of the building
• By adopting sound architectural practices
and taking examples from India’s traditional
architecture
• By adopting the integrated design approach such that the
client, architect, engineers, and consultants design the
building in a coordinated manner with a common goal –
sustainability.
9
10. • By adopting locally available construction materials
and giving impetus to local arts, crafts, architecture and
artisans
• By designing precisely sized energy systems
and not basing them on broad
thumb-rules
• Byreducing the resource consumption of the building
and its inhabitants so that the waste generating there-
from is reduced
• Byadopting energy efficient technologies (EETs)and
equipment
• By adopting renewable energy technology
(RETs) applications to reduce the
demand on conventional energy
