Economic Issues and Analysis on
Green Building
.
Introduction to Project
• Aim:
Cement:
• If PPC (Portland Pozzolana Cement) is used in construction, it will be
green Material Because PPC contains the flyash as the main
ingredients.
Green Materials
Rain Water Harvesting:
• The principle of collecting and using from
precipitation catchments surface . a
• There are two main techniques of rain water harvestings.
– Storage of rainwater on surface for future use.
– Recharge to ground water.
Energy Savings
• The savings in the energy will be 70% per year, which is near about
` 10,000 per year.
• The life of the LED fixtures will be more than 17 years
(50000/8/365=17.12). Same way the life of the tubelight is about 5
years (15000/8/365=5.14) and that of the CFL is about 2 years
(6000/8/365=2.05).
Water Savings
• Water fixtures use per day per person (6 persons):
– Basin : 4 Times a day
– Sink : 4 Times a
– Wash Area : day 4 Times
– Shower : a day 2
– W.C. : Times a day
– Urinals : 1 Times a day
• 3 Times
Total Water Saved = 74 liter/ day/ persona
day
=74*6=444 liter/day
Cost Analysis and Comparison
• The analysis and the comparison of cost for each item is as shown in
the chapter 6 of the report.

construction, which is
“Non recyclable”
• Exposed masonry with pointed finish
• Non erodible mud plaster
• Lime plaster
• Lime-cement combination plaster
• Natural extracts as paint (cashew oil,
bee’s wax, linseed oil)
• Clay with adhesives as paint

FIVE TARGET ISSUES
• Progress > Significant advancements
GREEN SHOOTS
Green Costing
Carbon Footprint
Building Information
Modelling (BIM)
• GREEN COSTING
With the increasing prevalence of green building ratings, the Quantity
Surveyor has to be adept in the knowledge of new and emerging
technologies that are being utilized in green buildings. Cost models have to
be updated to cater to Clients‘ needs in regards to the extra over
costs for achieving the different levels of green building certification.
• CARBON FOOTPRINT
The first step in developing a carbon management strategy for buildings will
be to accurately measure the current level of carbon emissions – that will
be your carbon footprint. Carbon footprint is essential for building owners
to set benchmarks to measure carbon performance and
to compare amongst other properties. These measurements would also
enable building owners to maximize energy efficiencies and returns through
identification of energy inefficient areas.
• LIFE CYCLE COSTING
The field of Life Cycle Costing (LCC) will grow in importance in the next few
years and the Quantity Surveyor, who is an expert in cost management, is in
an excellent position to gear itself for this role. LCC is a technique to
establish the total cost of the building throughout its functional lifespan.
LCC can be used to produce a spend profile of the building over its
anticipated life-span and the results can be used to assist the management
in the decision-making process to go green.
• Life Cycle Costing and Facilities Management, in
particular, were two services quantity surveyors
could offer - and specialise in - to achieve
sustainable building.
Life Cycle Costing, basically, can be defined as the
sum of all recurring and non-recurring costs over
the full lifespan or a specified period of applicable
structures, goods or services. This includes the
purchase price, installation and operational costs,
maintenance and upgrading costs, and the
remaining value at the end of ownership of the
commodity in question - in other words: the total
cost of ownership.
Facility management role of QS in Sustainable
Construction
• Construction, building technology and maintenance costs
• Estimating and budgeting
• Cost control and reporting
• Managing building operations
• Life Cycle costs
• Understanding building components and functionality
• Procuring goods, services and leases
• Managing contracts and sub-contracts
• Understanding building management systems
• Integrating information and management systems
• PROPERTY PERFORMANCE REPORTING
The emphasis on energy efficiency and the changing demand of
today‘s tenants requires building owners to work their way through
the existing performance measurement tools to understand where
they fail to meet new standards. In the first instance what is needed
is an assessment process that provides a clear gap analysis that takes
the owner towards a balanced improvement strategy.
