The course delves into sustainability, addressing the environmental impact of construction materials and advocating for the use of green products. Various green certifications and sustainable alternatives for building materials are discussed, emphasizing the importance of reducing the environmental footprint in construction. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is explained in four phases: goal and scope definition, life cycle inventory, life cycle impact assessment, and interpretation of results. Green project management, focusing on positive environmental, social, and economic impacts, is detailed across phases: project definition, design integration, construction implementation, and commissioning. The module also highlights the significant environmental impacts of buildings and introduces global green building rating systems, with a specific focus on India's GRIHA and IGBC systems and their role in promoting sustainable design practices.
Sustainability is the major talking point of every industry and construction materials that we use causes great harm to environment and human health. In order to reduce the footprint of a building the materials that we use should be sustainable with minimum impact. Here we will be discussing about…
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a systematic analysis of potential impact of a product or service during its entire life span from raw material extraction and acquisition to energy and material production and manufacturing, consumption, end-of-life treatment, and final disposal. Here we will discuss…
Green project management is a holistic approach that encompasses the utilization of methods and practices to generate a net positive impact on the environment, society, and the economy. In this module, we will explore the various stages of green project management. The initial phase involves defini…
Buildings exert substantial direct and indirect influences on the environment throughout their life cycle, from construction and occupancy to renovation, repurposing, and eventual demolition. These structures consume energy, water, and raw materials, produce waste, and release potentially harmful a…
