Green Rating Credits for Waste Utilization in Construction
Abstract Implementation of sustainable construction practices is the need of the hour, and this requires a paradigm shift in our concept of waste management. Waste materials arising from construction and demolition activities and industrial by-products can be utilized as value-added materials in building construction. The sustainability of building construction practices can be evaluated with the help of different green building assessment systems. This paper reviews the credits or scores assigned by green rating systems for the management and utilization of waste materials in construction. IGBC and GRIHA are the Indian green rating systems, and BREEAM, LEED, CASBEE, BEAM Plus, and Green Star are the foreign rating systems analyzed in this paper. It is recommended to incorporate credits in the Indian rating systems for the use of recycled or sustainable sourced aggregates in concrete and for the management of construction and demolition wastes.
