Major Criteria to achieve green element in buildings ARMIET ARMIET
Energy Efficiency Energy Efficiency can be achieved by, Using non-conventional and renewable sources of energy. Reducing energy consumption. Optimize energy performance. Use of alternative renewable sources of Power such as Solar Power, Bio mass, Wind Power, Hydro Power etc. In buildings, it is achieved by installing solar panels and photovoltaic, Solar water heater, natural lighting and ventilation and by use of low consumption electrical appliances.

Technologies to Achieve Energy Efficiency in Building ARMIET
Passive Solar Building Design Designing and orienting windows, walls and floors to utilize direct sun light. Using direct sunlight for heating in winter and avoiding the same in summer. Maximum use of natural delighting for ventilation. ARMIET
Solar Water Heating Use of solar power for heating water Works on solar power so no operational cost Delivers hot water for most of the time in a year ARMIET
Building Integrated Photovoltaic Photovoltaic (PV) Panel converts Solar power in to useful Electricity These PV modules can be installed on walls and rooftop of building Clean (eco-friendly) source of electricity Reduces consumption of conventional thermal electricity Proves to be economical in long term ARMIET
Material Efficiency Material Efficiency can be achieved by, Using eco friendly materials Construction waste management Use of regional and rapidly renewable materials Use of wastes and debris of demolition works Compressed Earth Blocks, Fly ash Blocks, Stabilized Mud blocks, HVFC, Bamboo, Low VOC paints and other recycled materials. Use of Solar Reflective Glass and Low VOC paints for better indoor air quality Source- IGBC and LEED ARMIET ARMIET
Eco-friendly Construction Materials ARMIET
Compressed Earth Block It’s a compressed mix of dirt, non expansive clay and aggregate. Slurry used for bonding of CEB is also of same mixture of dirt and clay Simple in manufacturing so, It can be prepared near the construction site. Economic since it uses dirt and clay which is not expensive at all. Fire resistant, Sound Resistant, Non-toxic in nature. ARMIET
Fly ash Blocks Mix of Fly ash and Lime Fly ash is a by product of Thermal power plants. Thus Fly ash, a waste material is utilized for construction Fly ash is very cheap (only cost of transportation) hence the blocks are also economical Possess high strength, good finishing and uniformity in size which reduced quantity of plastering Low water absorption Blocks are of comparatively large size hence, construction becomes faster ARMIET
H igh V olume F ly ash C oncrete About 50 % of the cement is replaced by Fly ash in HVF Concrete, Thus reducing use of cement and utilizing waste material More economical as compared to ordinary concrete Fly ash replacement doesn’t alter its strength if correct proportion is maintained Improved workability, reduced segregation and bleeding, increased pump ability In long term, less W/C ratio, increased strength, less shrinkage, low heat of hydration ARMIET
Low VOC Paints VOC is Volatile organic compound are drying agent of paint, which are toxic to humans VOC keeps evaporating from wall surfaces for years Low VOC paints contains minimum amount of VOC Better indoor air quality, protects Ozone layer, less allergic, quick drying, low odour ARMIET
Solar Reflective Glass Reflects infrared rays of sun Only permits visible light to pass through it Keeps indoors comparatively cooler hence, achieving energy efficiency 3°C-4°C temperature insulation is achieved High durability and resistance to surface abrasion, wear and tear ARMIET
Water Efficiency Water Efficiency can be achieved by, Treatment of waste water and Recycling of Grey water. Water conservation and ground water recharge by Rainwater harvesting Controlled water use and wastage reduction Reducing storm water runoff by efficient landscaping Source- IGBC and LEED ARMIET ARMIET
Recycling of Grey Water Grey water is waste water form laundry, dishwashing and bathing which can be recycled on site Without purifying it can be used for landscaping and some other agricultural purposes With purification it can be used for bathing, toilet flushing, car washing and other purposes except drinking and cooking It has many benefits including less impact on treatment plant, lower fresh water extraction, top soil nitrification ARMIET
Rain water Harvesting Collection and utilization of storm water Storm water can either be stored on site and used later or it can be recharged into the underground aquifer RWH system are beneficial individually as well as for society in case of ground water recharge Reduced runoff, less extraction of fresh water, less load on treatment plants, improvement in regional ground water table ARMIET
