Summary: | The article is dedicated to one of the most essential areas in the construction industry: consideration of the issues related to resource saving, ecologically and economically rational use of natural resources in accordance with “green standards” of the commercial property buildings, offices, in particular. During the operation of office buildings there takes place negative impact on all the components of the environment. Herewith, the first issues considered by the operating organizations are the cost of the facility, safety of technological processes, reliability, durability and operational characteristics, and only then the issues of building environmental friendliness and energy efficiency, the consequences of which are irrational use of natural resources and accumulation of environmental damage. The number of existing systems certifying “green” buildings is insufficient to create a stable human environment. Formation of the resource saving mechanism during the operation of office buildings requires the application of the “green” standards criteria, making it possible to provide results of the stable approaches during the entire operational lifetime of the building. Based on the local and foreign experience in resource saving stimulation under the “green standards” the article provides the estimation criteria making it possible to implement the ecological and economic evaluation of the resource saving mechanism during the operation of office buildings.
