2. Green strategies emphasizes on practices, technologies, and
products that limit a building's effects on the environment that
aims at reducing environmental risks and development without
degrading the environment.
3. g strategies broken up into six categories
1. Site
Characteristics
2. Water
Efficiency
6.Construction
Procedures
4. Indoor
Air Quality
5. Building
Materials
3. Energy
Efficiency
4. • This category deals with issues related to the ground the building
is built on and its location such as the size and shape of the
building which direction it is oriented, connection to public
transportation and community and the amount of disturbance of
the natural environment that is caused by the project.
5. • This category looking at ways to make water use more
efficiently. This includes domestic water use (drinking, cooking,
washing, flushing and irrigation).
11. • Efficiency energy use,sometimes simply called energy
efficiency,is the goal to reduce the amount of energy required
to provide products and services.
• Energy efficiency is key to ensuring safe,reliable and
sustainable energy system.

15. • Building materials typically considered to be 'green'
• Green materials like bamboo and straw, dimension stone,
recycled glass, and other products that are non-toxic, reusable,
renewable or recyclable.
• Materials selection is very important in determining how
sustainable a building is.
23. The Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) ensures that consumers are
purchasing low-emitting carpet products. Under the Green
Label Plus programs, carpet samples are put under stringent
criteria to ensure they perform with low chemical emissions to
help improve indoor air quality.

25. Selecting materials without added chemicals and using
proper material handling techniques can greatly affect the
quality of the indoor environment.

30. • IGBC Green New Buildings rating system is designed primarily for new buildings, both for air-
conditioned and non air-conditioned buildings. New Buildings include offices, IT parks, banks, shopping
malls, hotels, hospitals, airports, stadiums, convention centers, educational institutions (colleges,
universities), libraries, museums, etc., Building types such as residential, factory buildings, schools,
integrated townships will be covered under other IGBC rating program.
33. • LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) – a globally
acclaimed green building rating system.
• LEED strategies aimed at improving performance across all metrics:
energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved
indoor environmental quality.
• The Indian Green Building Council, which had adopted the LEED system.
36. • Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment (GRIHA) is a
rating tool that assesses the performance of a building against
certain nationally acceptable benchmarks. Developed by TERI
• Adopted by it serves to carry
out a qualitative and quantitative assessment and accordingly
rate a building on .
• GRIHA currently operates under (Association for
Development and Research on Sustainable Habitats) and is
supported by the and
