| Abstract | ||||
| The heritage buildings are more sustainable than the modern ones, since the designers were using natural and non-artificial ways to fulfill thermal and psychological comfort. Nowadays, during the restoration and conservation operations the environmental value of these buildings is neglected or not a priority. As there is no specific system that respect the situation of the heritage, buildings while restoration that would make the building use a huge amount of energy to do it is functions. We cannot deal with the heritage buildings the same way we are dealing with the moderns, because of it is value, functions and materials are different. This research is aiming to state standards that should be considered while doing Environmental Impact Assessment and specify the design aspects that may affect the reuse of heritage buildings, and analyze the current environmental impact assessment to give recommendations to create special environmental rating system for the heritage buildings | ||||
