PROJECT NAME: YCMOU Library and Multimedia Centre

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT:

This is to certify that Following measures have been considered as per Green Building Considerations:

Climatically Responsive Design with Maximum use of Daylight and Natural ventilation to reduce the Electrical Load.

Light Weight Insulated Roofing with North Lighting reduces overall structural load of the Building.

Roof Ventilation with the Use of Turbo Wind Extractors.

Planning Considerations: Respecting Natural Contours and Minimum Intervention with Natural Topography

Rain Water Harvesting for recharging of Bore wells and for Landscaping and Use of Grass Pavers for parking area for Rainwater Harvesting.

Solar / Sun path Analysis and Avoided Excess Heat Gain by use of Appropriate Fenestrations and Protection.

Building Lighting System Consists of Extensive Use of CFL’s to reduce Electricity Consumption.

Use of Natural Stone Cladding and External Flooring.

Use of Matt Finish Vitrified Tile for Flooring with Recycled content: Pre-Consumer – 17% and Post-Consumer – 7.6%.

Use of Low VOC Paints.

Use of low Flow Plumbing Fittings to reduce Excess of Water flushed.

Use of Native and Adaptive Landscape.

Laminated Glass used for glazing having Low ‘U’ Value lowers Heat and Sound Gain.

Followed Proper Construction Practices like – Labour Camps and their Hygiene, First – aid, etc.
