GRIHA (Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment) is the national rating system of India. It has been acknowledged as India’s own green building rating system. The tool evaluates reductions in emission intensity through habitats. GRIHA is a part of mitigation strategy for combating climate change in INDIA's “Nationally Determined Contributions” submitted to UNFCCC by the Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change, Government of India. This set of GRIHA manuals is a guide for building professionals (architects, services engineers, landscape designers, project managers, and contractors) involved in the design and construction of green buildings. The manuals provide a comprehensive understanding of the 5th updated version of GRIHA rating system, with introduction to concepts like life cycle cost analysis, life cycle analysis, and water performance index, etc., with an aims to build more sustainable physical assets and infrastructure services, while enhancing the livability and workability of the occupants included in its underlying criteria, rating process, strategies for compliance, and the documentation and evaluation procedure. Salient features The following are the salient features of the new version of GRIHA rating: · Indigenous rating system · Adoption of holistic approach towards sustainability · Process driven and performance oriented · Integrated team approach Contents: MESSAGE PRESIDENT GRIHA Council FOREWORD CEO GRIHA Council Acknowledgements Technical Advisory Committee Development Team Abbreviations Introduction Criteria SECTION 1: SUSTAINABLE SITE PLANNING Criterion 1: Green Infrastructure Criterion 2: Low-Impact Design Strategies Criterion 3: Design to Mitigate UHIE SECTION 2: CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT Criterion 4: Air and Soil Pollution Control Criterion 5: Topsoil Preservation Criterion 6: Construction Management Practices SECTION 3: ENERGY OPTIMIZATION Criterion 7: Energy Optimization Criterion 8: Renewable Energy Utilization Criterion 9: Low ODP and GWP Materials SECTION 4: OCCUPANT COMFORT Criterion 10: Visual Comfort Criterion 11: Thermal and Acoustic Comfort Criterion 12: Indoor Air Quality SECTION 5: WATER MANAGEMENT Criterion 13: Water Demand Reduction Criterion 14: Wastewater Treatment Criterion 15: Rainwater Management Criterion 16: Water Quality and Self-Sufficiency SECTION 6: SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT Criterion 17: Waste Management—Post Occupancy Criterion 18: Organic Waste Treatment SECTION 7: SUSTAINABLE BUILDING MATERIALS CRITERION 19: Utilization of Alternative Materials in Building CRITERION 20: Reduction in Global Warming Potential through Life Cycle Assessment CRITERION 21: Alternative Materials for External Site Development SECTION 8: LIFE CYCLE COSTING CRITERION 22: Life Cycle Cost Analysis SECTION 9: SOCIO-ECONOMIC STRATEGIES Criterion 23: Safety and Sanitation for Construction Workers Criterion 24: Universal Accessibility Criterion 25: Dedicated Facilities for Service Staff Criterion 26: Positive Social Impact SECTION 10: PERFORMANCE METERING AND MONITORING Criterion 27: Project Commissioning Criterion 28: Smart Metering and Monitoring Criterion 29: Operation and Maintenance Protocol SECTION 11: INNOVATION Criterion 30: Innovation Audience: Building professionals (architects, services engineers, landscape designers, project managers, and contractors) involved in the design and construction of green buildings Shelving: Environmental Engineering: Sustainable Architecture
