Sustainability ensures current developments meet present goals while paying attention to what future generations will inherit. Sustainable architecture practices take a holistic approach to ensure the optimum utilization of the building materials. These also include assembly processes that give maximum performance throughout a building’s lifecycle

Considering today’s rapid growth and development, Precast concrete characteristics makes it more natural choice for achieving sustainability. In 2005, the World Summit on Social Development clearly outlined sustainability goals regardless of the project or cause.
They identified three primary sustainability pillars, called the triple bottom line:

• Economic development where investment must be weighed against long-term returns, such as building life, maintenance upkeep, and utility.
• Social development where sustainability must become part of a community’s culture with a dedication toward shifting mindsets from short to long-term vision.
• Environmental protection where developers conserve resources like those consumed during construction and life-long building operation for the harmony of the planet.

Precast concrete elements are now-a-days being preferred for LEED certification of the building. To justify the same, refer the below-mentioned key points:

• Factory environment greatly reduces waste from bracing and formwork, excessive concrete, packaging and debris that builds up on-site when you cast in-place.
• Internal shop environments have controlled conditions where air quality, noise and safety hazards are addressed. This practice measures leads to healthier environment for the communities.
• Indoor air quality is higher in buildings made with precast concrete components. Exposed interior concrete surfaces have no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that emits toxic chemicals.
• Concrete finishes inside buildings have an attractive aesthetic appearance and eliminates extra work required for other types of finishes.
