ABSTRACT

The current architectural development trend is for green buildings, and architects in various countries are exploring ways to apply green technology to buildings. However, the question of how to create green buildings is an issue which is hard to solve in cold regions. Nowadays, most medical buildings involve large energy consumption, serious environmental pollution and lack of care for patients. With the cold regions in North China as the research object in this paper, based on the special climatic conditions in such regions and numerous green building theories at home and abroad, coupled with basic research on the medical environment within hospitals in cold regions, to further the practice of gradually meeting green hospital standards and characteristics of medical buildings, design strategies are presented which are suitable for green medical buildings in cold regions.
