| Abstract | ||||
| Buildings impact directly and indirectly on the environment during the life cycle of the building from construction to demolition. It consumes energy, water and raw materials, produces residues and causes harmful emissions to the environment and the atmosphere, creating the need for building standards for buildings to mitigate their negative impacts on the environment. Natural through sustainable green design,There are many different assessment systems in the world, such as the BREEAM system, the first building classification system in the United Kingdom, which appeared in 1990, and the LEED system, which emerged in the United States in 1998. A number of attempts have been made in Egypt to support the national approach to the application of architecture Green but still Egyptian systems are under study by researchers for the existence of certain deficiencies in some items and application. The research paper relies on the methodology of monitoring, analysis and comparison of some international and local models of the different global and Egyptian evaluation systems in order to reach the common points and clarify the different items to reach the most important elements that should be included in the evaluation system,Traditional and contemporary buildings in Egypt. The paper aims to develop a proposed evaluation system for green architecture in Egypt, and apply it to some buildings representing traditional architecture in Egypt (Beit Al-Suhaimi-House of Cretilia) and buildings representing contemporary architecture (Library of Alexandria-The new American University in the fifth assembly ”AUC”), Green architecture and compatible with the Egyptian environment.. The paper concludes with a set of general findings and recommendations that can be used to extract the most important items of the green building assessment in Egypt, which must be considered to reach buildings that are compatible with the environmental sustainability standards and the Egyptian local environment. | ||||
