Objectives of Green Building
To reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human
health and the natural environment by:
• Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources
• Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity
• Reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation
Green Building Principles:
Although practices and technologies may differ from region to
region, fundamental principles are the same: siting and design
efficiency, energy efficiency, water efficiency, materials
efficiency, indoor environmental quality enhancement,
operations and maintenance optimization and waste and toxics
reduction. The essence is an optimization of one or more of
these principles.

Conceptual Representation of Green Building
LEED is a set of rating systems for the design,
construction, operation, and maintenance of green
buildings which was Developed by the U.S. Green
Building Council.
To date, more than 1,080 projects—across 25 countries and 49
U.S. states—have been rated Platinum: the highest LEED rating.

At the time of its opening in 2004, the CII building
was the first LEED Platinum rated green building
in the world outside of the United States.
It is also India’s first LEED certified building (being
rated in October, 2003).
The building is an embodiment of modern
construction prowess with 55 percent of the
20,000 square foot structure being covered by a
green roof
in addition to having performance windows,
biological water treatment ponds and wind towers.

Green Building Index (GBI)
is Malaysia’s green rating tool for buildings and towns, created
to promote sustainability in the built-environment and raise
awareness of environmental issues amongst developers,
architects, engineers, planners, designers, contractors as well
as the public.
Buildings will be awarded with the GBI rating based on six key criteria:
(i) Energy Efficiency (EE) – improve energy consumption by optimizing building orientation, maximizing solar heat gain through the building
envelope, harvesting natural lighting, adopting the best practices in building services including use of renewable energy, and ensuring proper
testing, commissioning and regular maintenance.
(ii) Indoor Environmental Quality (EQ) – Achieve good quality performance in indoor air quality, acoustics, visual and thermal comfort. These
will involve the use of low volatile organic compound materials, application of quality air filtration, proper control of air temperature,
movement and humidity.
(iii) Sustainable Site Planning & Management (SM) – Selecting appropriate sites with planned access to public transportation, community
services, open spaces and landscaping. Avoiding and conserving environmentally sensitive areas through the development of existing sites
and brownfields. Implementing proper construction management, storm water management and reducing the strain on existing
infrastructure capacity.
(iv) Materials & Resources (MR) – Promote the use of environment-friendly materials sourced from sustainable sources and recycling.
Implement proper construction waste management with storage, collection and re-use of recyclables and construction formwork and waste.
(v) Water Efficiency (WE) – Rainwater harvesting, water recycling and water-saving fittings.
(vi) Innovation (IN) – Innovative design and initiatives that meet the objectives of the GBI.
