Green Building Design and Construction
Green builders who use reclaimed used lumber and recycled old wood resources are reducing the overall impact to the environment by diverting these salvaged materials from our landfills. Building green promotes conservation of materials and efficiency of products.
Sustainable design or "Building Green" is an opportunity to use our resources of used wood and reclaimed lumber efficiently while creating sound buildings. It can provide cost savings and moves us all closer to a sustainable future.
A green building is a structure that is often designed, built, or renovated (green home builder) employing used lumber reclaimed from old buildings in an ecological and resource-efficient manner.
Green building design incorporates green building products and integrates a variety of strategies during the design and construction of building projects. The employment by a green builder of used wood, old wood beams and other green building materials is very important in green building construction.
A sustainable green building product such as reclaimed old wood and used lumber have environmental merits whose use means less energy consumption, less natural resource depletion, less pollution, and an improved existence for both the planet and its occupants
Buildings account for one-sixth of the world's freshwater withdrawals, one-quarter of its wood harvest, and two-fifths of its material and energy flows.
Green-built homes appeal to those interested in living a healthy life-style and in preserving the quality of life in their communities.
When green building approaches are designed into a project from the start, they often can be incorporated with minimal or zero costs.
When all is said and done, building green is more about people than it is about technology. Home buyers who choose a green builder make a statement of personal values with their largest investment.
Green building is an opportunity to use our resources efficiently while creating structures that build a better environment, and provide a better life for all of us.
