green building is so much talked about but not so much implemented on the larger scale. The main aim of optimization of architectural design is to make efficient use of resources in optimum way which includes study of renewable energy‚ embodied energy of materials‚ solar radiation incident on building‚ and water efficiency especially through rain water harvesting. This study also leads to emergence of green rating which will help to assess environmental impact of building. We are going to work
