Abstract

From the last ten years, Construction of sustainable building becomes significant at international level because of attention of international community towards sustainable development. This paper, based on the adoption of sustainable techniques in the development of Green building, Major barrier towards sustainable construction is the waste generated at the different stages of construction. Waste production causes several problems, such as their deposition make soil infertile and causes environment contamination through, air and water pollution. Material of old buildings can be recycled and use in the construction of new buildings. The construction which consumes less cost, utilize less natural resources with less environmental degradation is known as sustainable construction. Architect and Contractor are the responsible for the sustainable construction. In sustainable construction, Architect designs, building as per client perception but by following sustainability techniques. The contractor is responsible for the implementation of sustainable design. Material selection is the critical step in sustainable construction. Steel is a most appropriate sustainable material produces low waste, efficient and more durable. It has high compressive strength and causes less environmental degradation. Latest technology in sustainable construction is the development of Green Roof which make interior of building pleasant with low cost. The Purpose of this review paper is to present techniques and material selection towards the construction of green building. After the detail analysis on the construction material, suitable adjustment suggested towards the project construction. Sustainable building consumes low cost, causes less environmental degradation and meet today as well as next generation demands.
