Abstract:

The paper gives account of the relationship between design for sustainability and its related factors. It includes the concepts of sustainable development, planning and design achievements and the use of green material. The concepts of sustainable development should be made of the strategies of effective planning and design, the personal safety problems and ecological strategies, green building materials, the appropriate and reliable technology, interdisciplinary working and integrated collaboration in research on green building materials. In addition to these, the article studies the main categories of green building materials, including ecological safety materials, low-carbon materials, and recycled-content materials.
