Abstract:

It this article the author discussed how buildings influence environment. The main sustainable buildings information sources' review was made briefly. There are guides, handbooks, guidelines, databases, software and web-based tools. This information is needed to facilitate decision-making during the completion of a building's design, its construction and at the operational stages. Also, retrieval of the existing building rating systems was performed. Obstacles were clarified for the usage of the rating systems. The MCDM-23 (multi-criteria decision-making method) as a building's rating system was chosen, copied from Internet an installed into a personal computer. This program automates a multi-criteria evaluation. This paper/research performed an evaluation and comparison of two single-family house projects “Kedras” and “Vasaris”. It is found that the project “Kedras” is better than “Vasaris”.
