Sustainable architecture helps in minimizing the adverse effects buildings have on the environment by using recycled materials and lower volatile organic compounds. Some of the benefits of sustainable architecture and engineering are reduction of waste, improvement in the quality of air and water, conservation of resources and reduction in operating costs. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of sustainable urban design and architecture. Architects, civil engineers, students, researchers, experts and all associated with this field will benefit alike from this book. 3
