4.  Is this green building?
4

5. A green building is the one that uses less water,
optimizes energy efficiency, conserves natural
resources, generates less waste and provide healthier
space for occupants as compared to a conventional
building.
We would like to show some awesome constructions
that are ancient and available today which are
naturally ventilated…

8.  The concept of green building can be traced to the
energy crisis and environmental pollution concerns of
1960s to 1970s.
 There are numbers of motives for building green
including environmental and economic benefit.
 To bring together a vast array of practices techniques
and skills to reduce and ultimately eliminate the
impacts on environment and humans.
 To emphasis on taking advantage of renewable
resources.
8

9.  It enhances and protects eco system.
 It improve air and water quality.
 It reduces waste streams.
 Conserves and restores natural resources. It operating
cost is very less
 It improves quality of life.
 It improves occupant productivity.
 Enhances asset value and profit.
 It optimizes life cycle economic performance.
 It enhances occupants health and comfort.
 It minimizes strain on local area .

RATINGS CREDITS REQUIRED
LEED Certified 23-27
LEED Silver 28-33
LEED Gold 34-44
LEED Platinum 45-61
This rating system encompasses five environmental
categories :
1. Sustainable sites
2. Water efficiency
3. Energy efficiency
4. Material efficiency
5. Indoor environmental qualities.
This system gives 61 credits.

13.  GRIHA assesses a building out of 34 criteria and
awards points on a scale of 100. In order to qualify
for GRIHA certification ,a project must achieve at
least 50 points.
 Projects scoring….
o 1.50-60 points is certified as 1 star GRIHA rated
building.
o 2.61-70 is a 2 star GRIHA rated building.
o 3.71-80 is a 3 star GRIHA rated building.
o 4.81-90 is a 4 star GRIHA rated building.
o 5.91-100 is a 5 star GRIHA rated building.

14.  Passive architecture should be adopted to minimize
negative impacts on environment.
 This contains 2 options .
o (a). Climate responsive concepts and design features
 E.g. : orientation, skylights, shaded courtyard,
shading from trees etc.
o (b). Passive cooling/heating technologies
 E.g. : wind tower, earth tunnel, geothermal
technologies
14

15.  Erosion of soil should be controlled
 Fertile topsoil should be stockpiled prior to
construction , for future reuse or donation.
 Provision for basic amenities so as to reduce
negative impact caused from auto mobile use.
 Minimum disturbance to the nearby topography or
vegetation
 Restoration of disturbed site area by design
vegetated spaces over built up structure and on the
ground, for at leas 30%of the site area.
15

16.  Reduction in embodied energy & operating energy.
 High performance building reduces about 30% of
the energy consumption
 Studies show that wood has low embodied energy
as compared to that of steel and concrete.
 Use of high windows and insulation in walls,
ceiling and floors to reduce operating energy.
 Placing of awnings, porches and trees to shade
windows during summer and maximize solar gain
in winter.
16

17.  Efficient heating and cooling systems.
 Building automation system.
Energy efficient commercial lighting, such as leds, are
used to reduce energy.
Reduction of amount of energy lost through heat from out
dated lighting system.
Automation system are the main sources of energy
efficiency in existing buildings.
Based on occupancy, outside temperature, light and time
of day automation system can reduce energy usage by
activating heating, cooling or led lighting only in those area
of building where they are necessary.
17

18.  Reducing water consumption and protecting water quality
are key objectives of any sustainable building.
 Critical issues of water consumptions is that its demand in
the particular area exceeds its replenishing ability.
 By designing a dual plumbing that recycles water in toilet
flushing or by using water for washing the cars
 Waste water may be minimized by utilizing water
conserving fixtures such as ultra low flush toilets and low
flow shower heads.
 Bidets help eliminate the use of toilet paper , reducing
sewer traffic and increasing possibility of re-using water
on site.
18

19.  Limit the use of turf on the site, instead plant a
native species of the particular area.
 Treat waste water generated from site , so as to
avoid polluting the receiving streams by safe
disposal.
 Enhance ground water table usage thus decrease
municipal water demand through effective
rainwater management.

20.  Green building emphasise waste reduction.
 Construction wastes & demolition debris are the main
wastes produced during construction process & these
wastes degrade the quality of environment.
 Green building ensures waste reduction by:
1. Reuse & minimisation of construction wastes &
debris & diverting them to recycling units.
2. The increased use of recycled contents & waste by-
products in construction materials.
3. The use of existing building structure & reclaimed
building materials in the core & shell of project.
4. Designing the structure to produce less scrap &
execute it according to the plan
20

21.  Green Buildings reduce construction wastes by 50%
compared with that of similar conventional buildings.
 For green building, building materials such as lumbers
from forest, recycled stone, recycled metal and any other
industrial recycled goods which are non toxic like coals,
sand etc are used.

22.  This one of the five category in LEED standards that
concerns with the comforts and well being and
productivity of occupants.
 Provide adequate air ventilation, so as to avoid pollutants
affecting indoor air quality.

23. 23

24.  The previous building was constructed 90 years back.
 Exhibits bunglow type with open space surrounding it.
 It served 75 years and since then it was lying unused.
 It was deteriorated since last 10 years.
 This building was used by East India Company officers
before independence & then it along with the other
buildings and spaces were given to establish university
in 1949 by His Highness Maharaja of Baroda state.
 The building due to lack of maintenance and repair got
deteriorated and finally was abandoned after .

 Triple Skin as a Roofing
 Shading of Terrace
 Day light & Sky light
 Passive Ventilation via a Turbo Ventilator

43.  This building does not discharge any waste water
and recycles all the used water.
 The building compromises of two air conditioning
towers where incoming air is cooled up to 7 to 8
degree by spraying water there by reducing the load
of air conditioning energy consumption.
 The roof is covered by gardens as well as solar
photovoltaic thereby reducing the energy
consumption by 60%against a comparable
conventional building.

 The building is so designed as 70% of the work
area does not require any artificial lighting during
day.
 All the interiors are made of recycled material.

46. 46

47.  The overall water consumption of this building is 58%
less as compared to other building of same capacity.
 Most of the waste water is recycled and used for
irrigation purpose.
 The buildings design comprises of an efficient building
envelope, which includes insulated walls and roof,
along with spectrally selective double glazed windows
which are appropriately shaded
 More over, efficient equipment and smart automation
is used across the building that leads to a 40%
reduction in energy cost.
 Almost 90% of the work spaces inside the building
includes light shelves that ensures that natural light
travels as deep as possible inside the building.
