Abstract | ||||
There is a lack of awareness about the added environmental value of the integration between Lean and Green building design. This study is investigating the relationship between Lean and Green building design represented in the Egyptian rating system (Green pyramid). The research clarifies Lean Construction concepts and principles which reduce waste and increase the quality through enhance building performance. Also, focuses on analyzing the Egyptian rating system (Green Pyramid) which was established to ensure sustainability in Egypt, reduce the environmental impact of construction and raising the awareness toward the importance of green buildings to the Egyptian environment. Based on analyzing previous concepts, studying literature review and considering the principles of Lean Construction with the criteria of Green Pyramid for certification of environmental performance of buildings for understanding the results of their integrations and proposing recommendations to be added at the Green pyramid Egyptian rating system as approach for green building design in Egypt. | ||||
