Sustainable principles
Indoor air quality
One of the main sustainable principles is indoor air quality; indoor air quality is often take as how indoor air effect the health wellbeing of a person this can be expanded these can be summarized
Thermal acceptability
Maintenance of normal concentration of respiratory gases
Removal of contaminates and pollutions
Using eco building materials
Using green material in construction that has least impact and offer high performance like longevity, stability, strength and lightness among other materials,
Example – Eco bathroom products
Water saving fittings, spray taps, low flush toilet bath washing machine, showers use a fraction of water supply of convention alternative, saving huge amount of hot & cold water. There are lots of benefits using low flush toilet save around 11000 litre/year this system more suitable for student accommodation centre.
Energy & CO2 Emission
The large amount of significant construction activities, had cause large environmental pollution, the large energy used and CO2 emission take place during the production, it’s very important to reduce the CO2 on sustainable construction.
Management
It’s very important to assume the leadership over the vision and value for the project, also important to maximize the benefit and minimize the environmental impact and restore the degregrated eco system. The scope of the project must maximize the quality, the unique must give the valuable solution for the future citizens.
Ecology
Model our nature system throughout our project it’s most valuable, the intelligence & sustainable technologies found and understanding modelling our biological system. This can be achieving through study of nature, also it’s very important to connect the project to nature equal success.
Eliminate waste
Throughout the sustainable development the budgeting & cost controlling practice vital to optimize, also some proven practice such as budgeting, scheduling, contact management can also be sustainably improved.
Health and wellbeing
Sustainable development incorporate with nature principle and practice, project is to be delivering no impact & restoration impact. Thorough the effective planning, management the human integrated with nature not separate from it. Where it’s necessary to include all the health and wellbeing system included.
