Abstract: | Recent years has seen a gradual increase of interest in green buildings due to their
many advantages and positive effect on the environment, economy and our lifestyle.
Hence, for achieving more benefits from green buildings, there is more research into
this subject in order to further improve this concept. In addition to incentives
provided for building green in developed countries like United States and United
Kingdom, with the support of non-government organizations assessments based on
green certification programs, such as, BREEAM and LEED has been established. On
the other hand, countries like Lebanon are still unable to implement green buildings
in an efficient manner. The purpose of this study is to discuss the importance of
green building concepts for residential buildings and investigate the situation in
Lebanon. For this reason, a survey was conducted targeting the Lebanese general
public and professionals for better understanding of their knowledge and awareness
regarding green buildings. The residential building Factory 4376 is located near the
Lebanese capital city of Beirut. It is the case study that was evaluated by using the
BREEAM certification categories and as a result it was promoted to BREEAM
"GOOD" classification, ranging from 45% to 55%. The survey results are presented
through which the problems affecting the development of green buildings in Lebanon
are identified. Thus, it is expected that this study will contribute towards
understanding matters relating to sustainable development in general and green
residential buildings in particular.
Keywords: green building in Lebanon, BREEAM, LEED, green products, Lebanese
market. Öz: Son yıllarda bu binaların çevre, ekonomi ve yaşam tarzımıza etki eden birçok avantaj
ve pozitif etkilerinden dolayı yeşil binalara karşı ilgi kademeli olarak artmıştır.
Bundan dolayı, yeşil binalardan daha çok faydalanabilmek için bu konuyla ilgili
kavramları daha çok geliştirme adına daha çok araştırmalar yapılmaktadır. Amerika
Birleşik Devletleri ve İngiltere gibi gelişmiş ülkelerde devletin verdiği teşviklere
ilaveten sivil toplum örgütlerinin desteğiyle BREEAM ve LEED gibi yeşil sertifika
programları başlatılmıştır. Diğer yandan, Lübnan gibi ülkeler halen yeşil binaları
etkin bir şekilde uygulayamamaktadırlar. Bu çalışmanın amacı meskun binalar için
yeşil bina konseptinin önemini tartışmak ve Lubnan‟daki durumu araştırmaktır. Bu
nedenle, Lubananlı genel halk ve profesyonellerin yeşil binalarla ilgili bilgi ve
farkındalığını ölçeçek bir anket hazırlanmıştır. Meskun bina Factory 4376 Lubnan‟ın
baş kenti Beyrut yakınlarındadır. Bu bina örnek olay olarak BREEAM serifika
programı kullanılarak değerlendirilmiş ve %45 ile %55 arasında toplanılan puanlarla
BREEAM „İYİ‟ sınıflandırması almıştır. Anket sonuçları kullanılarak Lubnan‟da
yeşil bina konseptini etkileyen problemler tespit edildi. Böylece, bu çalışmanın
genelde sürdürülebilir kalkınma ve özelde de yeşil meskun binaların daha iyi
anlaşılması için katkı koyması beklenmektedir.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Lubnan‟da yeşil bina, BREEAM, LEED, yeşil ürünler, Lübnan
