Green Building Design (Module 1)

Is Green Building means a building cover surrounded by Green Plants & Trees..? Well, It's more than this. A Green Building combines a aspects like Energy Efficiency, Water Conservation, Sustainable Material, Indoor Environment Quality, Sustainable Building Planning & Design etc.

With the Focusing on this Aspects, The Course is Design to provide you immersive Learning of " How to Design Green Building" with different Parameters that are discussed in following lectures.

Section 1 : This Section is about LEED Rating system for Green Building that bundled with three Lectures.                             Lecture 1 consists Basics of LEED, Area of LEED rating systems, LEED credit categories, LEED certification levels.          Lecture 2 consist basics of GBCA, it's Categorise, Certification Process etc..., Basics of CaGBC, it's working procedure, rating system as well as Basics of BREEAM, it's Categories, Credit categories & Point, Rating Scale, Standards etc.                    Lecture 3 consist MOSTADAM rating system of Saudi Arabia, it's vision, Rating levels as well as GRIHA & IGBC rating system of INDIA, it's Rating Structure, Rating system, IGBC Rating system, Key areas etc.

Section 2 : This Section is about Green Building - Building Envelope. There are 2 Lecture that consist the contents on Factors of building envelope, thermals through building material, U - values on building performance, Cool roofs, Glazing & Skylights, SHGC/VLT for Glasses, Insulation & it's R-Value etc.

Section 3 : This section consist 1 lecture of Air filtration. Lecture has a topics like about infiltration, selection of Building Materials for infiltration, Methods for air flow sealing, Controls of Moisture flow.

Section 4 : This section is about Green building - lightning. There is a 1 Lecture that bundled with topics like basics of Lightning & Appliances, Fundamentals of lightning, types of lightning systems, how to select efficient lightning system, lightning density, efficiency comparison.

Section 5 : This section is about Green Building - HVAC design. The section consists total 2 lecture that comprises following contents like Chillers, chiller bases condenser / compressor, selection of chiller, energy performance terms, chiller energy conservation guidelines.

Section 6 : This section is about Green Building - Packaged & Ductless HVAC systems. There is a 2 lecture in this section that bundled with topics like basic of this HVAC systems & it's types, Technical terms for HVAC systems, Efficiency Recommendation, Efficiency rating of HVAC equipment's, PROs & CONs of Packaged AC Units. 

This course series is useful for those who wish to understand design aspects of Green Building. The course is not about remembering points and credits but it is about conceptual understanding of different parameters affecting Design process of Green Building. Prior going for LEED or any other Green building exam, if the Design concept is understood, It will make the process of Green certification as well as credentialing process much easier.
