Sustainable construction of buildings provides an ethical and practical response to issues of environmental impact and resource consumption. Sustainability assumptions include the entire life cycle of the building and its significant components, from resource extraction through disposal at the end of the materials’ useful life. Sustainable building design relies on renewable resources for energy systems, recycling and reuse of water and materials, minimal intervention for landscaping, passive heating, cooling, and ventilation; and other approaches that minimize environmental impact and resource consumption. At present, sustainable buildings are defined by the assessment systems, that rate and certify them. Building assessment systems simply score or rate the effects of a building's design, construction, and operation, among them environmental impacts, resource consumption, and occupant health. Health in building can be deduced by the presence or absence of chemical and biological substances within circulating air, as well as the relative health and wellbeing of the building occupants. Building assessment systems used in the world evaluates various types’ buildings (office, hotels, government buildings, educations, institutional, industrial facilities, facilities of health-care, residential buildings). Assessment systems evaluate new buildings, major renovations or existing buildings. The aim of this paper is to highlight the evaluation of the selected family houses in various categories aimed at location and site, building constructions, energy efficiency, water efficiency and waste.
