Green Building

The
Office of Federal Environment Executive defined "Green Building" as
"the practice of 1) Increasing the efficiency with which buildings and
their sites use energy, water, and materials, and 2) Reducing building
impacts on human health and the environment, through better siting,
design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal- the complete
building life cycle."
Master Builder SV incorporates energy efficient design through
effective use of active & passive solar techniques, natural lights,
insulation, ventilation, and floor plan design. Our choice of
sustainable resource materials, efficient use of materials (even our
water usage), use of safe non-toxic materials, and utilization of steel
framing reduces wate, increases recycled and recyclable materials.
The Green building may cost more up front, but saves through lower
operating costs over the use of the building. these and other cost
savings can only be fully realized when they are incorporated at the
project's conceptual design phase with an integrated team of
professionals as one system design.
Added benefits, such as improved occupational health, comfort,
productivity, reducing pollution and landfill waste are added bonus.
Even with tight budget, many Green Building measures can be
incorporated with minimal or zero increased up-fornt costs and they can
yield enormous savings.
