Theory To Practice

The study aims to guide the assisted living facility (ALF) design, in which biophilic design, which is observed to have positive physiological, psychological, and sociological effects on humans, is observed, and the principle of universal design is accessible and designed for everyone. Since there is no place called a biophilic ALF, the study is supported by a nature-oriented design method called Green Building Rating Tools. Green building certificate systems are explored in terms of biophilic and universal design, and three of the certifications show credits linked to the theories researched. With these certificates, green building certified ALFs located in the same region are selected. With the methodology applied on the case studies of three ALFs that received these certificates, how and where biophilic and universal design patterns can be transferred from theory to practice has been examined. The study observed the extent of 14 biophilic design patterns in ALFs and tabulated how to find each pattern in these facilities according to the methods and places.

The Cost

Green buildings have benefits for the environment, which has been acknowledged by the vast majority of building professionals. LEED is one of the most recognized green building certification systems in the world. However, issues related to financial aspects of the entire process and LEED certification may be significant and constitutes new financial burdens to the cost of the projects. After a diligent literature research, main issues related to cost can be identified under four major categories such as; cost of the certification process, scarcity of insurance solutions, rental due to delay related to green construction procedures and conditions, and failure to use of financial incentives (tax/loan discounts, low financing rates) because of delays or lower certification levels than expected throughout the LEED certification. This study focuses on the assessment of professionals’ experiences about the financial and economical risks green buildings and their impacts on cost by identifying the most common drawbacks and evaluate relevant precautions against them. Analysis results show that high cost of certification process is one of the concerns for the majority of the professionals. Rental loss due to delay related to green construction procedures and conditions, costs related to certification, documentation, practices and design are found as the other risk factors in the study. Proper allocation of such risks in contract documents and special insurance products with appropriate endorsements could be used to mitigate related risks.

Sustainable development in the construction industry demands implementation of a green rating procedure and certification to assess building. The rating tools set benchmarks for green measures for constructing and use of buildings to reduce their negative impacts on environment thereby making it more sustainable. In this paper, Rating systems and certifications across the globe are studied and compared to give a clear understanding of all for any green building project to be evaluated upon. There are 18 major certifications and 18 rating systems all over the world, however in India there are three rating systems which are mostly used viz. IGBC, GRIHA, LEED. It is recommended that a more simple system is needed for enhancing the participation of all stakeholders in Green building construction thereby leading to sustainable development.

<p><em>As buildings are one of the highest energy consumers from all over the world, there is special need to focus on how to mitigate energy consumption through regulation and policy. Responding this necessity, the concept of green building is being implemented in many countries along with Indonesia as an alternate to the traditional building concept. However there is slow movement in implementing this concept, especially in Indonesia. From legal viewpoint this paper will aim to answer why the Indonesian green building sector is not well developed. The method used in this paper is normative legal research. The analysis finds that the slow movement is due to the lack of the regulatory framework on its subject. Moreover, there is only little support from the government toward policies that might drive growth of the green building development. In light of this, there should be robust and strong regulatio. This can be achieved at the national level by regulating green buildings and also having government policies that encourage the development of green buildings. </em></p><p> </p>

Green buildings have become one of the most famous and fastest growing construction concepts. As the world is becoming environmentally viable, all investors and contractual workers will need to know the figures of green financing and if the dangers of contributing are justified regardless of the arrival sum. This chapter aims to compare green building and conventional building using the cost differences and economy impact to ascertain the benefits of green building over the conventional building of green building. Data was collected through questionnaire survey from 50 construction professionals. The result of this chapter shows that green buildings are more expensive than conventional buildings; however, the benefits accrue from green building makes green building cheaper in the long run.

Alternate Solution

Sustainability has been the latest value added service in the facility management field. However, the practice of sustainability in the facility management field is not well recognized and understood by the facility management team. As a result, building sector account to be the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions around the world. In fact, there is a strong business case for green building, yet green buildings represent the next phase of buildings. Since, the majority of the existing stock of buildings is not sustainably built and as it is not practically viable to demolish all the existing buildings, hence, one alternate solution is green retrofitting. However, the responses for green retrofitting are at very low rate. This paper reports the need to green retrofitting, reasons behind the limited number of green retrofitting implementation, and finally, a critical review of the existing body of knowledge on green retrofitting has been conducted. It is found that there has been no research conducted till to date on identifying the success factors for successful green retrofitting implementation.

Emission Of Greenhouse Gases

Buildings could be led to adverse impacts on environment, such as generation of construction and demolition waste, and emission of greenhouse gases (GHG). Therefore, promotion on development of green buildings is in need. With the increasing awareness in sustainable development, various rating tools are promoted to evaluate the performance of green buildings. Nowadays, these tools function as a guideline for green building development. There are various green building rating tools developed worldwide, and various countries follow different rules, incentives and regulations. However, despite of promotion of green building rating tools, environmental issues from buildings are still significant in Australia. This research compared green building rating tools in Australia and other countries or regions around the world. This research found that rating tools in Australia lack of (1) mandatory criteria and (2) regulations and incentives. This paper recommended that governmental incentives should be promoted.

Buildings across the world consume a significant amount of energy which is equivalent to one third of total primary energy resources available. This has led to lots of challenges with regard to supplies of energy, energy resources quick depletion, increase in building service demands, improvised comfort lifestyle along with time increase spend in builds; this all has increased the energy consumption. Even the global sustainability is also pushing the implementation of green buildings in the real world. Researchers and scientists have been working on this issue for a very long time, but still the issue is prevalent. The aim of this chapter is to present comprehensive and significant research conducted to date with regard to green buildings. The chapter provides in-depth analysis of design technologies (i.e., passive and active technologies) that lay a strong foundation for green building. The chapter also highlights the smart automation technologies which help in energy conservation along with various performance metrics.
