Description

The construction of any building consumes so many resources, among them one of the valuable resources is water. During building construction and manufacturing of different materials water is highly used and there is no proper data for usage of water. The previous research papers investigates water consumption of a particular buildings by visiting site and did the dcomparative study on data. The use of water is unavoidable but it should be conserved as we know the importance of fresh water in our life. The exhaustive use of water results in waste so to mitigate this problem, this paper shows some ways to conserve water during construction.
