A Study on Green Building Project Delivery Based on Lean Construction

Green building is an organic combination of sustainable concepts and the construction industry, and is a leading trend in the development of the construction industry. However, the current delivery method of green building cannot effectively meet the requirements of its highly integrated systems, the use and recycling of non-traditional materials, etc., which reduces the efficiency of the process of green building delivery. Lean construction, as a method to reduce waste and improve productivity, provides a new idea for delivering green buildings, and its theoretical system and its content play a certain contribution in the process of delivering green buildings. Combined with the characteristics of green buildings, the idea of lean construction can be applied to green building delivery to improve the efficiency of green building delivery process. This paper firstly reviews the relevant studies on lean construction and green building through literature, based on which the synergy between lean construction and various stages of green construction is analyzed using the relationship matrix diagram, and further elaborates how lean construction can be implemented in green construction to improve the efficiency of green building delivery process, which provides a reference method for future green building delivery.
