he growing environmental impact prompted
the development of green building methods as a means to
enhance the construction process while also reducing that
impact. Here, we provide a comprehensive bibliographic
study. This led to the discovery of 124 publications about
green buildings in 40 prestigious scientific journals. In
order to learn about the most prolific writers and nations,
as well as how the articles have changed from 1980 to
2011, a quantitative analysis is performed on them. After
that, we provide suggestions for each part of Green
Building based on our qualitative analysis, which tries to
identify the most important factors and challenges. Our
hope is that this article will help those working in the field
of building science and practice make more informed
choices that will have a positive impact on green building
sustainability and energy efficiency.
