Abstract:
Abstract The residential-building sector in India consumes >25% of the total electricity and is the third-largest consumer of electricity; consumption increased by 26% between 2014 and 2017. India has introduced a star-labelling programme for residential buildings that is applicable for all single- and multiple-dwelling units in the country for residential purposes. The Energy Performance Index (EPI) of a building (annual energy consumption in kilowatt-hours per square metre of the building) is taken as an indicator for awarding the star label for residential buildings. For gauging the EPI status of existing buildings, the electricity consumption of residential buildings (in kWh/m2/year) is established through a case study of the residential society. Two years of electricity bills are collected for an Indian residential society located in Palam, Delhi, analysed and benchmarked with the Indian residential star-labelling programme. A wide EPI gap is observed for existing buildings for five-star energy labels. Based on existing electricity tariffs, the energy consumption of residential consumers and the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE)’s proposed building ENERGY STAR labelling, a grid-integrated rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system is considered for achieving a higher star label. This research study establishes the potential of grid-connected rooftop solar PV systems for residential buildings in Indian cities through a case study of Delhi. Techno-economic analysis of a grid-integrated 3-kWp rooftop solar PV plant is analysed by using RETScreen software. The study establishes that an additional two stars can be achieved by existing buildings by using a grid-integrated rooftop solar PV plant. Payback for retrofit of a 3-kWp rooftop solar PV plant for Indian cites varies from 3 to 7 years. A case study in Delhi, India establishes the potential of grid-connected rooftop solar PV systems for residential buildings. Techno-economic analysis of grid integrated, 3 kWp rooftop solar systems estimates a payback period from 3 to 7 years.

Abstract:
Abstract There are, presently, two schools of thought when it comes to designing buildings that promote sustainable development. One school emphasizes materials use and ‘‘green’’ buildings, while the other emphasizes energy use and energy efficient buildings. The promoters of ‘‘green’’ buildings often claim that the reduced energy use during operation of the low energy and solar buildings is counteracted by the increased embodied energy in these buildings. This paper gives categorical analysis of the technologies available for Low energy and green architecture and emphasizes the need to integrate both in residential buildings to of lower the energy use in operation during the lifetime in a residential building in hot arid climate. The results also show that there should be little difference between the approaches of the two schools of thought. The best buildings will generally be those that are both low energy, and ‘‘green’’. This paper also gives policy guidelines to integrate them in the building bye-laws for hot arid climate

Abstract:
The global construction sector accounts for 13.2% of the world GDP. It contributes to the world’s economic growth engine and climate changes due to its high energy footprint. Sustainable buildings can reduce the adverse impacts of the construction industry, but their adoption is slow due to hindrances. The purpose of this paper is to extensively review the literature on barriers to green building adoption to date. Also, to highlight the overlapping and unique barriers specific to India compared to few prominent countries, provide solutions and recommendations for future research. The barriers were classified under Economic, Governmental, Organizational, and Social perception, Information, Technology, and material categories. Barriers unique to India and few others developing countries are an extension of project schedules, lack of research and developmental works, lack of public motivation, poor building code enforcement, high payback period, uncertain supply of green materials, improper implementation of policy framework, and performance of GBTs. The green building construction sector is fragmented around the world. Even green building definition is not the same globally, although the environmental aspect is the same. Similarly, there are unique and overlapping challenges in green building adoption globally. Buildings in usage perspectives can be classified into Residential and Non-residential. This study looks only at non-residential buildings due to their homogenous nature. There is a dearth of specific studies related to the adoption of green buildings in India. This study aims to fulfill India’s standing in the barriers to green building adoption concerning the developed and developing countries.

Abstract:
Buildings are accountable for waste generation, utilization of natural resources, and ecological contamination. The construction sector is one of the biggest consumers of resources available naturally and is responsible for significant CO2 emissions on the planet. The effects of the buildings on the environment are commonly determined using Life Cycle Assessments (LCA). The investigation and comparison of the Life Cycle Ecological Footprint (LCEF) and Life Cycle Energy (LCE) of five residential buildings situated in the composite climatic zone of India is presented in this study. The utilization of resources (building materials) along with developing a mobile application and a generic model to choose low emission material is the uniqueness of this study. The utilization of eco-friendly building materials and how these are more efficient than conventional building materials are also discussed. In this investigation, the two approaches, (a) Life Cycle Energy Assessment (LCEA) and (b) Life Cycle Ecological Footprint (LCEF), are discussed to evaluate the impacts of building materials on the environment. The energy embedded due to the materials used in a building is calculated to demonstrate the prevalence of innovative construction techniques over traditional materials. The generic model developed to assess the LCEA of residential buildings in the composite climate of India and the other results show that the utilization of low-energy building materials brings about a significant decrease in the LCEF and the LCE of the buildings. The results are suitable for a similar typology of buildings elsewhere in different climatic zone as well. The MATLAB model presented will help researchers globally to follow-up or replicate the study in their country. The developed user-friendly mobile application will enhance the awareness related to energy, environment, ecology, and sustainable development in the general public. This study can help in understanding and thus reducing the ecological burden of building materials, eventually leading towards sustainable development.

Abstract:
AbstractThe construction industry in India is the country’s second largest industrial sector, after agriculture. The construction industry makes a remarkable contribution to the Indian economy and provides employment to a large number of people of India. Fire is a chemical reaction of a combustible substance with oxygen, involving heat and is usually accompanied by a visual flame or incandescence. Ensuring fire safety has always been a challenge to the stakeholders, i.e. building owners, construction companies, contractors and sub-contractors, and government employees due to the multiplicity of the factors involved and their complexity. There are various legal standards and requirements for ensuring fire safety on construction sites. The buildings are normally provided with firewalls during construction and these firewalls separate two structures or divide a structure into smaller portions to prevent the spread of fire. The lightweight construction and trusses are designed to support only their own weight. During a fire, if one fails, a domino effect happens and all fail rapidly within 5 to 10 minutes. Prolonged exposure to fire may result in structural collapse and injury or death of the occupants of the building under construction. Fire safety on construction sites is still in its primitive stages in India. There is a great necessity to improve fire safety on construction sites to protect construction workers and other occupants of the buildings. This study aims to design and implement fire safety systems for construction sites, thereby enhancing the standards to meet the system requirements at par with global standards.

Abstract:
The integration of photovoltaic modules into the building structure is a challenging task with respect to power generation of PV module and the effect of incident solar radiation. The performance of building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) modules varies depending upon the orientation and azimuth angle of the building. In this work, the year-round performance and economic feasibility analysis of grid-connected building-integrated photovoltaic (GBIPV) modules is reported for the hot and humid climatic regional condition at Kovilpatti (9°10′0′′N, 77°52′0′′E), Tamil Nadu, India. The appropriate mounting structures are provided, to experimentally simulate the performance of GBIPV modules at various orientations and inclination angles (0° to 90°). The result indicated that the optimum orientation for installation of BIPV modules in the façade and walls is found to be east while that for a pitched roof south orientation is recommended. The overall average annual performance ratio, capacity utilisation factor, array capture loss and system losses are found to be 0.83, 23%, 0.07 (h/day), and 0.17 (h/day), respectively. In addition, the economic feasibility of grid connected PV system for residential buildings in Tamil Nadu, India is analysed using HOMER by incorporating both a net metering process and electricity tariff. Practical application: Grid-connected building-integrated photovoltaic system has many benefits and barriers by being installed and integrated into the building structure. The application of GBIPV in building structures and its orientation of installation needs to be optimised before installing into buildings. This study will assist architects and wider community to design buildings facades and roofs with GBIPV system which are more aesthetic and account for noise protection and thermal insulation in the region of equatorial climate zones. By adding as shading devices, they can reduce the need for artificial lighting, and moderate heating or cooling load of the buildings.

Abstract:
In India, the lack of financing mechanisms has been identified as a major impediment in achieving energy efficiency (EE) and requires focused research to identify barriers and propose innovative financial models. This paper presents details of selected Government of India initiatives that highlight interlinking strategies of energy efficiency renovations, their financing models, and institutional policies needed for their implementation. These initiatives show that residential buildings have tremendous scope for retrofitting as they successfully attract finances through Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) and Renewable ESCO (RESCO) routes. This research highlights understanding of financial and technical barriers in energy efficiency retrofitting for existing residential buildings. Additionally, it discusses financial models and technical interventions being employed in energy efficiency residential retrofitting projects and demonstrates a retrofitting cost model for an actual case study project for composite climate using various physical and technological interventions. The work includes developing retrofitting scenarios through Government initiatives of technical interventions, then performing energy saving calculations, and finally developing cost model explaining the actual savings and payback periods for the potential intervention’s investments. These steps led to the development of a potential cost model which can assist both homeowners and energy professionals in identifying and implementing energy retrofitting measures in the residential building sector.

Abstract:
The role of the built environment and the construction industry in sustainable development gained global attention due to their significant share in global warming, GHG emissions, energy demand and depletion of non-renewable resources. Residential buildings carry the largest share amongst buildings and place heavy demands on natural resources for building materials, energy and water. The significant share of energy and natural resources involved in the production of building materials emphasizes the need for appropriate conservation strategies based on scientific study. This initiated efforts for comprehensive assessment of a building’s energy consumption and environmental impacts over its life span, termed as life cycle. Life Cycle Energy (LCE) in buildings comprises two major components, Embodied Energy (EE) and Operational Energy (OE). EE comprises the net energy involved in production of building materials, its transportation to the construction site, and construction. OE in buildings comprises energy required for occupant comfort and productivity which includes energy for lighting, heating, cooling and ventilation, normally excluding energy used for appliances (plug loads). While OE reflects the direct energy consumption in buildings, EE primarily comprises inherent capital energy associated with materials and building construction. Conventional approaches to energy conservation focus on OE as it affords some degree of active measures to regulate energy consumption. However, in addition to the EE already expended, the climatic-response of the specific building design and material used can have a significant bearing on the OE. Assessing the life-cycle energy of a building is thus complex. Moreover, EE assessment to support low-energy building design currently lack consensus on the methodology to be adopted. This is further exasperated by the lack of data on the energy involved in manufacture of building materials. The current study attempts to address these challenges by proposing and adopting a practical framework for EE assessment and generating data for prominent building materials in India based on first-hand data collection. The study reveals that a range of EE value for a building material is more practical to define, as a unique value does not hold good. This is attributed to the fact that the parameters determining EE of a material differ widely depending on the type of industrial process employed, its energy efficiency, geographical location, raw materials adopted, etc. Earlier studies on building energy conservation addressed only OE, as it generally carried a large share of the life cycle energy. But the fact that in some cases EE can outweigh OE of the building over its life, is gradually receiving attention. With improvements in OE efficiency of buildings, EE can constitute a greater share of the net life cycle energy. Lower the OE, higher the share of EE in LCE. Assessing relative share of EE and OE in buildings becomes a significant input to identify the potential areas for energy conservation. With this objective, the present study assessed EE and OE for few traditional and conventional dwellings in different climate zones of India using field survey data on building materials, construction technologies and OE etc. This study provides and insight into the energy in buildings with particular reference to the climatic-response associated with the thermal performance of traditional and modern buildings in India. The study reveals a wide range of EE value of rural and urban dwellings studied. The analysis for both rural and urban dwellings results did not reveal any definite correlation between EE and OE, and EE and LCE. However, the relative significance of EE and OE in LCE varied for urban dwellings depending on the climate zone. The results reiterate the importance of EE assessment for LCE analysis in buildings. Given available computational support, attempts are made to assess OE in buildings at the design stage itself adopting building simulation models. There has been extensive research since last few decades in developing various simulation tools for modeling building energy performance including that of air-conditioning, ventilation, lighting and other plug-loads. Building simulation studies facilitate OE analysis for various design alternatives keeping in mind low-energy performance. OE in buildings is greatly influenced by the local climate and the specific thermal characteristics of the building envelope. The thermal performance of the building envelope determines its ability to regulate indoor thermal comfort in response to external climatic conditions. To assess the thermal performance of building envelope, it is crucial to ascertain the thermal properties of constituent materials. Thermal conductivity, in addition to specific heat and density, is paramount to ascertain to understand thermal behavior, and also as crucial data to support OE building simulation studies. The present study includes experimental investigation on thermal properties of different envelope materials, to generate input data for building simulation studies. An ideal building envelope would passively regulate indoor thermal comfort through the year, so as to place no demand on OE to maintain thermal comfort. Building simulation studies enable proper designs for suitable thermal performance of building envelope to achieve minimum OE. In this perspective, the present study includes building modeling and simulation study of traditional and conventional dwelling for their influence on OE. One of the objectives of this section of the study is to understand the intricacies involved in building modeling and simulation. The study examines OE in traditional and conventional dwellings for various wall materials in different climate zones. The results reveal variations in OE for various climatic conditions, but limited variation for different walling materials. In the traditional dwelling, natural ventilation was found to play a dominant role in regulating indoor thermal comfort while in the conventional dwelling thermal performance of the fenestration (glazing) strongly influenced indoor thermal comfort. Thus, the present work links studies on energy in buildings and associated aspects of building materials in a systematic manner to present a comprehensive research study.

Abstract:
Buildings consume major amount of energy as well as natural resources leading to negative environmental impacts like resource depletion and pollution. The current task for the construction sector is to develop an evaluation tool for rating of buildings based on their environmental impacts. There are various assessment tools and models developed by different agencies in different countries to evaluate building's effect on environment. Although these tools have been successfully used and implemented in the respective regions of their origin, the problems of application occur, especially during regional adaptation in other countries due to peculiarities associated with the specific geographic location, climatic conditions, construction methods and materials. India is a rapidly growing economy with exponential increase in housing sector. Impact assessment model for a residential building has been developed based on life cycle assessment (LCA) framework. The life cycle impact assessment score was obtained for a sample house considering fifteen combinations of materials paired with 100% thermal electricity and 70%-30% thermal-solar combination, applying normalization and weighting to the LCA results. The LCA score of portland slag cement with burnt clay red brick and 70%-30% thermal-solar combination (PSC+TS+RB) was found to have the best score and ordinary Portland cement with flyash brick and 100% thermal power (OPC+T+FAB) had the worst score, showing the scope for further improvement in LCA model to include positive scores for substitution of natural resources with industrial waste otherwise polluting the environment.

Abstract:
Renewable sources of energy and related technologies are essential to the generation of energy worldwide. The photovoltaic (PV) is one of the renewable power technologies that support household electricity use. No prior research has studied the sustainability of the off-grid energy generation system in Jammu, India despite the potential of solar photovoltaics and significant amounts of global sun radiation in an area. The present work shown in the chapter is to calculate the residential load of the Patyari Kaltan situated in district Samba of Jammu by energy auditing. The NASA Surface Meteorology is used for the solar resource informationof selected village. The primary sources of electricity generation are fossil fuels. Recently, the energy demand and availability deficit has worsened due to the huge population and fossil fuels cannot fulfill huge energy requirement. Meanwhile they have negative impacts on the environment as well. Therefore, renewable energy offers suitable energy way out to the residents living in remote areas and in the areas near to Borders. In this paper the main aim is to examine the feasibility of solar-battery hybrid energy system to fulfill electrical demand of a residential area in a rural region in Jammu. The research shows that the cost of construction of the project can be repaid or recovered within 1 year 6 months. To accomplish the target, 214 solar panels of 325 watt are estimated to satisfy the demand 100 percent at all times. The findings of this modeling reveal that the off-grid PV system is both technical and economically viable for power generation; they may serve as a model for the successful development of the system for practical use. Furthermore, the model can promote assistance mechanisms for players in the renewable industry to introduce a PV system in residential buildings.

Abstract:
Based on the impact of climate changes, our concern about this scenario arises since the entire building is exposed to different climatic agents such as the rain itself, which can negatively impact the integral performance of the construction and of course trigger an impact economic, health and functionality for the user. Waterproofing is a substantial requirement for all types of buildings and sea for residential, commercial and industrial use. Aspects such as geometry and materials with which the structural roof systems (slabs) were obtained play a fundamental role when choosing the most effective waterproofing system to incorporate into the building. Therefore, our main approach is to enlist the waterproofing system based on mortar and nopal mucilage to protect the roofs of houses in order to achieve good performance and conservation of the building.

Abstract:
The social living of the urban households depends on the physical manifestation of spaces arranged to carry out their day-to-day activities of members including children, adult, women, men, old age, and differently able persons. Urban neighborhoods undergo changes in the spaces in house and building, places in a locality, and the overall built form. The city spaces experience transformation in the house spaces and common places, and the built form experienced the residential character change towards commercial and other nonresidential uses in the neighborhood. The impact of the spatial transformation demands to make redevelopment strategies to resolve the conflict between residential and commercial spaces in the neighborhood. So, the need for an integrated approach towards “Participatory Redevelopment” (PRD) of the urban neighborhood becomes a challenge for the city planners. The new planning model on PRD as an integrated approach developed by the author is followed in the redevelopment project hosted by the Corporation of Chennai. The PRD approach used “C-TC-C” model to follow participation as “Collective-Target Centered-Collective”. The PRD adopts the approach called the five-pillar system (FPS). These aspects are the main focus of this chapter within the context of T. Nagar, a residential neighborhood transforming into a busy retail commercial market area and residential living and parking spaces situated in the midst of Chennai City, the capital of the Tamil Nadu State in India.

Abstract:
This chapter considers the unique religious and racial dynamics of Atlanta and its location in the U.S. South. Moving beyond the well-known black-and-white binary, it examines the historic experiences of Asian immigrants in the South and how they negotiated this dynamic. Contemporary immigrants, and particularly Hindu immigrants, have carved out space for themselves religiously and geographically in this historically segregated landscape. The chapter reviews the geography of Hindu Atlanta by looking at residential patterns and the religious institutions and informal groups that Hindus have established in the metropolitan area. While temple-building is important in India, it takes on new significance in the United States, where establishing a Hindu temple announces the community’s presence to the rest of the population and chips away at the Protestant hegemony of the South. Because these sites are the most visible sites of Hindu practice, they have received the most attention from scholarly researchers and local media outlets. This tendency to focus on institutional sites of Hinduism overlooks the central role that domestic practice takes in the tradition. This study of the Guptas’ and their community’s practices helps correct this imbalance in scholarly and popular conceptions of Hinduism in the United States and locates much of the transnational community and its formation within members’ homes.

Abstract:
The increasing demands for housing the burgeoning urban population in developing countries like India has impelled the need to shift to mechanised construction practices like Precast Concrete Construction (PCCon) for faster supply of projects. PCCon has been successfully implemented in developed countries to meet the once prevalent housing shortages and is still being adopted extensively in high rise residential building projects in these countries. PCCon offers several benefits compared to cast in situ construction practices such as reduced construction time, time and cost certainty, improved quality control and improved health and safety. PCCon also promotes environment friendly construction, addresses shortage of skills and results in minimisation of life cycle costs.
