Bangkok Looks to Emphasize Green Buildings

(EMAILWIRE.COM, May 12, 2013 ) Sydney, Australia -- The new 'green' buildings being constructed are being a point of focus in the new city planning scheme for Bangkok, with the design theme being called 'Bangkok, the Green City'.

Under the newest plans, which has recently been approved by the Babinet earlier in May, the goal of the push is to promote environmentally-friendly buildings that are in line with the Thai Green Building Institute guidelines. Such buildings will have an increase in floor-area ratios that are allowed for the standard set of buildings.

This expansion of ground ratios can be a difficult challenge for those in charge of developed, as they must increase budget along with the size of the buildings. The overall aim and hope by leaders is that the new green-focused scope will save energy costs over the long-term, according to to deputy director-general of the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration's City Planning Department, Panyapas Nopphan.

Before the task is officially taken on by anyone, the new city plan must be vetted. The overview and review of the concept will expire by May 15. Nopphan stated that the green standard will be in line with the many qualifications that are set forth by the TGB Institute, which has presided over the guidelines for the last half-decade.

Building management will include the preparing of green buildings, maintenance system establishment, and project design that will be seen through to completion. Landscaping will make up 19% of the total evaluation, will entail an investigative overview on the locations negative impact of the surrounding area. Water conversation makes up 7% of the overall score, while energy and atmosphere make up nearly a quarter of the score.

Materials will make up a 15% tally on the score, and focuses on the materials used in construction. Companies will need to focus on energy-saving and locally sourced recycled materials to maintain positive scores. Indoor environmental qualities will make up 20% of the total score as well, as the use of potentially harmful chemicals in pain and finishings must be avoided.
