The effectevnice of the green building evaluate & labing system Article

The effectevnice of the green make evaluate & labing system - bind Exampleilding formulated the green building evaluation and labeling system (GBELS) which uses nine indicators to evaluate if a building project is environmentally viable. After implementation in 1999, the government mandated that all state building should initiate the green building design. Green building labels were awarded to building fulfilling at least four indicators. Differing feedback have been receive with some claming that some GBELS indicators cant be used at the initial design stages, neglects the designer, clients and contractor take and is not effective. However, some positive feedback indicates that GBELS helped in power conservation, improvement of project life cycle and onward motion of green building. In light of these, this research carry evaluated GBELS by examining its effectiveness, implementation, application, scope, current practice as come up as reveling its merits and demerits for the purposes of recommending on the methods of improving it and using it internationally. (Chinese architecture and building center, 2007 Lin et al, 2006 and Vivian, 2007)The main aim of the research work was to evaluate and analyze the effectiveness and implementation of GBELS its terms of its applicability, suitability as compared to other environmental sagacity tools, its merits and limitations as well as its applicability on an international level.After collecting the data, selection was do to discard wrongly filled questionnaires. For the comparative analysis the author compared GBELS with BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental sagaciousness Method), HKBEAM (Hong Kong Building Environmental Assessment Method) and LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) (CET, 1999).Where W was the weight given by each factor by the respondent 1(least important)-5(most important), A was the highest weight, N was the total number of the sample and was the congress impor tance index.Administering of questionnaire provides for an adequate means of
