Abstract

Buildings of healthcare should have requirements and needs of the architectural design. These
requirements stem from the actual needs of each society, but at the same time can benefit effectively
from the experiences of developed countries in this area - both were similar circumstances or different
in order to reach the highest performance of the building. In this case, the requirements of indicators
are used as a checklist to determine which different elements to be met and relied on throughout the
studies carried out by some international organizations, research and reports of interest. Such
checklists can be considered as efficient source to determine the requirements to be accessible. In the
same context, there are several determinants of help to improve the environmental performance of the
building and checklist adapted to the building with the surrounding environment without damaging the
building or the environment with the convenience of individuals, which may result in knowledge of
the requirements of the design and an analysis of each side to develop on a regular, ongoing basis.
Hence, the research will deal with findings of the performance of a number of global systems
associated with sustainable healthcare buildings and also the evaluation system in Egypt as the local
system. It aims to clarify each system and credit of the achievement of those parameters in order to
access to the determinants of improving the performance of the building in the context of a specific
and comprehensive environmental analysis.  It will gain access to the methodology in the context of
the most important determinants affecting the performance of the building in terms of energy, water,
emissions, transport, materials and resources.
