HISTORY OF GREEN BUILDING

Abstract

The article examines the concept and history of the emergence of the concept of «green building» and its significance in the modern world. «Green building» is not only a fashionable trend, but also an integral part of the sustainable development of society. The essence of «Green Building» is that new construction technologies introduced into each «green building» allows the facility to remain environmentally friendly and energy efficient throughout its entire life cycle. The historical account of the green building relationship dates back to the 1970s, when the ideas of environmental protection and development were first proposed. During these years, the concept of «green building» was introduced, and appropriate goals and objectives were developed. Since 1990, the first «green standards» have been developed, such as the BREEAM and LEED systems, which aim to assess the environmental performance of buildings, minimize negative environmental impacts and ensure safety for people. Based on the assessment, a certificate is issued that determines the rating of the building. The first domestic developed national standards of environmental assessment STO NOSTROI 2.35.4-2011 and STO NOSTROI 2.35.68–2012 are also considered. Certification allows you to get an assessment from independent experts, increase the investment attractiveness of the project and reduce unforeseen risks of environmental impact. Thus, «green construction» is an integral part of sustainable development and it is necessary to adopt its principles and methods in the construction industry.
