Eco-friendly building basically refers to a building and the construction process involved that are resource-efficient and environmentally friendly throughout the life-cycle of the building. (Parashar and Parashar, 2012). The advancement in technology in recent times has brought forth the idea of incorporating the construction of the sustainable building in the construction of the green building to create greener structures with the aim of reducing the overall impact on the health of human as well as the environment by improving employee productivity; the efficient use of water, reducing waste, environmental degradation and pollution; reducing waste, environmental degradation and pollution; energy and other resources. This paper considers some of the various studies conducted with the objective of converting standard buildings into green buildings as well as the environment at large. Some of the various methods or approaches adopted in the creation of an eco-friendly environment were considered. These methods were critically examined and gaps identified were high-lighted. Suggestions were made in relation to the correction of these gaps as identified.
