Going Green

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design

TRC fully supports Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System norms. The rating system addresses five major areas: Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere, Materials & Resources and Indoor Environmental Quality. TRC helps in conserving the natural resource by going with innovative construction & design methodology like using of fly ash as a partial replacement for cement in all the projects, insisting on going with the PT structural systems for long span structures, thus reducing the concrete and steel quantities which intern helps in conserving the natural resources.

The LEED Rating System provides the building industry with consistent and credible standards to construct environment friendly buildings. LEED norms benefit a wide range or professionals in the building industry; architects, real estate professionals, facility managers, engineers, interior designers, landscape architects, construction managers, lenders and government officials.
