Go Green with Saakaar Aquacity
Everyone in today’s world is discussing turning green. As natural resources start depleting and climate change starts impacting our daily lives, it has become extremely critical for us to think about ecofriendly ways of living. It is the responsibility of each & every individual and company to make our contributions for saving Planet Earth. Living in a Green Building is one major way in which we can create a better future for ourselves and our future generations.
What is a “Green” Building?
A green building is an environmentally sustainable building, designed, constructed, and operated to minimize the total environmental impacts. The idea of a ‘
Green Building’ is to limit the impact on the environment without compromising human comfort. Green building aims to achieve more with less, which is what makes this sector so interesting.
An architectural structure; either residential or commercial, created with an emphasis on resource conservation, internal recycling, the use of renewable energy sources, recyclable or biodegradable building materials, and fitting in with the surrounding area, especially in rural areas, can be called a ‘Green Building’. The objectives are to minimize the impact on the environment and to take human health considerations into account.
Through improved design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal, green building works to increase a structure’s efficiency in terms of its use of water, energy, and materials while minimizing its impact on people’s health and the environment.
Green buildings are evolving day by day in terms of design, material, indoor, operations, and environmental efficiency. The essence of green buildings is the optimum optimization of one of these principles.
The Purpose of Green Building Architecture
The key to architectural sustainability is to work with, rather than against, nature; to sensitively exploit and simultaneously avoid damaging natural systems. Architectural sustainability mirrors the view that it is necessary to position human activities. With this thought in mind, Saakaar Construction has designed its newest venture
Aquacity. Bihar hasn’t seen a lot of green buildings in recent years, and therefore this new project promises a better living environment to anyone who is dreaming of staying in an eco-friendly neighborhood in the busy city of Patna.
Is becoming green economically sensible?
The entire building life cycle is the focus of the green building, also known as sustainable building or environmental construction. The terms “high-performance building,” “sustainable design,” and “saving valuable resources” are frequently used in association with the word “green building.”
Even while a strong design is essential to a green building, the operation, maintenance, and eventual demolition or deconstruction of the structure also have very significant implications on the building’s overall environmental impact. The designers and architects at Aquacity have taken into this while building Saakaar Construction’s very own mega project.
Importance of Green Buildings
The use of enhanced indoor air quality,
natural lighting and thermal comfort in well-designed green buildings will result in financial savings, increased comfort, and the creation of healthier environments for people to live and work in.
One of our biggest environmental impacts is energy use, which depletes natural resources and emits CO2. Energy efficiency and conservation are given top attention due to unstable energy markets, rising energy prices, and growing environmental awareness of concerns like global warming. Building energy efficiency and occupant comfort are the main goals of Build Green.
Apart from this, some of the key points that hold accountability are:
- Using Biodegradable Materials
The usage of biodegradable materials is an environmentally beneficial way to ensure that a green building is long-lasting. The bulk of traditional building materials results in the accumulation of waste products and harmful chemicals, the majority of which take hundreds of years to degrade. They contaminate and harm the environment even after they decay.
When it comes to constructing a home construction, insulation is one of the most important considerations. Most people are unaware, however, that insulators are just wall filters that do not require the use of pricey or finely finished materials.
Green insulation has been shown to be a sustainable construction method since it reduces the requirement for high-end finishes made of non-renewable resources. Green insulation uses old and discarded materials like denim and newspaper to provide a solution. To put it another way, the walls are lined with recycled materials.
Cool roofs are green design innovations that aim to reflect heat and sunlight away from the building. Minimizing heat absorption and thermal emittance helps to keep homes and buildings at conventional room temperatures.
Reflective paints and specific tiles are used in the design, which absorb less heat and reflects the majority of solar energy. Cool roofs, for example, can cut summer temperatures by more than 28°C. As a result, cool roofs minimize reliance on air conditioning and, as a result, energy consumption, resulting in lower cumulative greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.
Benefits of Green Construction
The advantages of green building include the following:
- Reduction of the use of natural resources
- Decrease in operating costs
- All inhabitants’ well-being, comfort, and safety
- Energy conservation and consumption optimization
- Increased output from those present
- More breathable interior air (IAQ has a tremendous impact on human health)
- ● Companies are encouraged by green buildings to gain from a green corporate image and make a great first impression on clients, staff, business partners, and shareholders.
At Aquacity, we have made a lifelong commitment to promote the principles of natural, sustainable living, and a deliberate choice is made to stop resource depletion and preserve nature for the future generations. You can also join us in our movement by choosing a green building as a home.
We are proud to have been certified with an
IGBC Gold Certificate by Indian Green Building Council. We also put major emphasis on waste management & disposal at Aquacity. In fact, we are one of the very
first users of Eco STP technology in Eastern India. This new technology gets its inspiration from a cow’s stomach and treats waste water in an eco-friendly and cost-effective way.
It is our motto to make the dreams of our customer come true, while keeping our carbon footprints in check!
