Abstract

Green construction has become one of the recommended solutions for reducing the current building's negative impacts on human health, society, industry economy. However, in the future, there is an important use of a comprehensive review of this massive amount of material. In past decades, the amount of studies on green building has skyrocketed. In the case of green architectural development, this chapter provides a critical examination of the existing corpus of knowledge. Thematic and quantitative similarities in the research have been discovered. Green structure's idea and scope, as well as the evaluation of construction benefits over constructions and various ways for producing green buildings, are all hot subjects. It was determined that the majority of earlier studies on green building had concentrated on the ecological impacts. Other components of green construction sustainability are sometimes overlooked, including good governance. The influence of climatic factors on the usefulness of green building rating methodologies, testing of real green buildings, different population demands, and upgradeability are all potential study subjects for the future.
