What are THREE elements that focus on Green Building

Index (GBI)

• Transportation

• Energy

• Water

• Materials

There are seven building phase in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). What is the LAST ONE?

-Raw material extraction

-Product manufacturing

-Transportation (logistics)

-Construction and installation

-Operation and maintenance (building lifetime)

-Demolition (end of life)

-????

• Environmental loads

• Estimation

• Recycling

• Impact of products

What is Life Cycle Assessment LCA?

• Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a part in Green Building

• Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a process of a product.

• Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a tool to see the true impact of a product.

• Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a tool to analyse the true impact of a product.

In LCA, what are the possible inventory data and the impact assessment in building operation phase

• Materials

  Certain materials contain VOC compound which affect the health of the occupants.

• Energy usage

  Usage of energy generated using fossil fuel releases greenhouse gas and causes global warming

• Water usage

  Building new catchment area and treatment facilities imposes many environmental damages. This is the risk if the demand for potable water keeps on increasing

• Waste

  Waste landfill imposes many environmental damages including the release of methane which is a greenhouse gas.

What are the THREE pillars of sustainability

• Environmental

• Ethic

• Economic

• Social

How the Greenhouse Gases (GHG) EFFECT the earth?

• Sunlight passes through the atmosphere, warms the Earth’s surface and lower atmosphere.

• Heat is radiated back toward space

• The outgoing heat is absorbed by greenhouse gas molecules

• Heat re-emitted in all directions and heat will be warming the surface of the earth

• Heat can passed outside atmosphere 100% from earth

Here are the major factors contributed to the thermal comfort EXCEPT?

• Air temperature

• Humidity

• Radiant temperature

• Air speed

• Lux

Heat can be transferred via THREE different processes. Name all of the processes

• Conduction

• Immersion

• Convection

• Radiation

There are TWO types of heat. What are they?

• Sensible heat & Latent heat

• conductive heat & convective heat

• convection & radiation

• sun & fire
