Planning and scheduling of green residential building

Abstract

This project work deals with the planning and scheduling of a (G+4) green residential building which is located in city area. In this project we have tried to provide all basic as well as modern amenities in residential green building which provides comfort and healthy environment. We are aiming to reduce the environmental impact, water consumption, maintenance cost and make the residential building energy efficient. For achieving this we are going to build rain water harvesting tank and provide solar panels. Also we are trying to make this building cost efficient & energy efficient. Realizing the situation about huge energy & water consumption, we need to use energy to its fullest & water sources in premises of building itself so that occupants need not to depend upon external sources which are not affordable. For achieving more accuracy, we are using Civil engineering software like AutoCAD for planning the green building. We have gone through the core principles of planning and building byelaws which helped us in proper preparations of design of green residential building. Further Scheduling of activities is to be done manually. As we know now a days building sector alone represents 35% energy consumption realizing the situation the need is to adopt a sustainable green building approach, which is the ultimate solution to reduce the energy demand of the building. Over usage of conventional material, not only harms the environment but also affects the natural resources hence we are proposing to use natural cost effective materials and some advanced techniques like rainwater harvesting and solar system to maintain the needs of environment and economy.
