Green buildings in earthquake -hit areas

Potres je iznenadno oslobađanje energije iz Zemljine unutrašnjosti koja se uočava kao trešnja i buka koja ruši i razara građevine koje nemaju dobru protupotresnu zaštitu. U 2020. g desila su se dva velika potresa i veliki broj manjih potresa uslijed tih potresa. Potres koji se dogodio u ožujku 2020. godine u Zagrebu osjetio se i u drugim dijelovima zemlje, kao i u Karlovačkoj županiji, a šteta koju je prouzročio još ni danas nije sanirana. Potres u Petrinji je bio dosta jači i uništio je veliki broj zgrada, kuća i gospodarskih zgrada, a se osjetio i u drugim zemljama te je dodatno prouzročio štetu u Zagrebu i okolici, kao i u Krapinsko-zagorskoj županiji. Prema procjenama ovlaštenih osoba građevine su dobile oznake uporabljivosti, a to su crvena, žuta i zelena oznaka, i prema tim naljepnicama je određen način obnove. Nakon potresa nastali otpad potrebno je pravilno zbrinuti, na predviđene načine i mjesta. Zelena gradnja je gradnja koja se odnosi na upotrebu ekološki prihvatljivih lokalnih materijale, energetsku učinkovitost građevine, smanjene otpada pri izgradnji, mogućnosti recikliranja kod završetka životnog vijeka građevine, kao i očuvanja krajobraza u kojem gradimo. Resursno učinkovita infrastruktura teži smanjiti učinke proizvodnje i potrošnje na okoliš u svim fazama – od vađenja sirovina do korištenja proizvoda koji su iz njih nastali pa do otpada nastalog zbrinjavanjem. Smanjenjem količine materijala koju koristimo, kao i ponovnom uporabom i reciklažom, obnavljamo vrijedne materijale i pomažemo smanjiti emisije. Razorni potresi na području središnje Hrvatske ukazali su na nužnost povećanja otpornosti zgrada kako bi se smanjile potencijalne štete i gubitci te zaštitili ljudski životi u slučaju pojačanih seizmičkih aktivnosti. Gradnja i obnova građevina može biti zelena i konvencionalna. U Hrvatskoj je dosta raširen klasični način gradnje dok bi trebali težiti zelenoj gradnji.An earthquake is a sudden release of energy from the Earth's interior that is perceived as shake and noise that crashes and destroys buildings that do not have good anti-seismic protection. In 2020, there were two major earthquakes and a large number of minor earthquakes resulting from those earthquakes. The earthquake that occurred in March 2020 in Zagreb was felt in other parts of the country, as well as in Karlovac County, and the damage it caused has not yet been repaired. The earthquake in Petrinja was much stronger and it destroyed a large number of buildings, houses and farm buildings. It was reported in other countries and caused further damage in Zagreb and the surrounding area, as well as in Krapina-zagorje County. According to the estimates made by certified persons, the buildings were assigned usability labels coloured red, yellow and green, and according to these labels, the method of restoration was defied. After the earthquake, the generated waste must be disposed of properly, applying designated methods and places. Green construction implies the use of environmentally friendly local materials, energy efficiency of the building, reduced waste during construction, recyclability at the end of the life of the building, as well as the preservation of the landscape in which we build. Resourceefficient infrastructure strives to reduce the effects of production and consumption on the environment at all stages - from the extraction of raw materials, the use of products made from them to the waste they generate during disposal. By reducing the quantity of materials we use, as well as reusing and recycling, we renew valuable materials and reduce emissions. The devastating earthquakes in central Croatia have highlighted the need to increase the resilience of buildings in order to reduce potential damage and losses and to protect human lives in the event of increased seismic activity. Construction and renovation of buildings can be green and conventional. In Croatia, classic way of building is quite widespread, while we should strive for green building concept
