sustainable environment. This requires close cooperation of the design team, the architects, the
engineers, and the client at all project stages.[1] The Green Building practice expands and
complements the classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort. For
a building being able to receive a green building certtification et must accomplish with certain

In order to have the LEED, the building must have 7 requirements
1)Substainable sites
LEED look for stategies that reduces impact in the ecosystem during construction of the building
2)Water efficiency
The building must have innovations for the racional use of water, reduction of the use of water and
recycle
3)Energy and atmosphere
the building must promote the energetic efficiency in the structure by simple and new strategies,
like, automatic system that uses articial light just when necessary

regional materials that can be reused and reduce the emission of trash in the nature

of people with focus in the choice of materials
6)Innovation in design or innovation in operations

technology
7) regional priority credits
the building must be able to have a context with the urban reality of the oplace whitch was
