Abstract
As many developing countries, Ethiopia has a lot of challenge. Along with the Ethiopian
growth in the house construction of buildings come the predictable adverse on
environmental, economic, and social effects. These effects are ongoing all over the life
cycle of the house structure. A problem fronting the Ethiopian society is thus to give a
growing population opportunities to obtain sustainable and inexpensive housing. Now a
day‟s house construction in Debre Birhan city has undesirable impacts on the economic
cost environment and social. Currently, there are many house systems with different
goals and valuation scopes in some details. One way to attain this is to use steel
technology, which means that houses are constructed by steel frame and composite deck
slab. This report is explored some misunderstanding in choosing the suitable system for
the house construction in agreement its environmental, social, and economic contexts.
Also the study was aimed to equate and deliver overview and components of the
systems. The contrast results can be used as a guideline for additional expansion of
sustainable house systems. It is initiate that most major sustainable house systems still
concern only environmental issues while newly advanced methods have involved social
and economic issues in their criteria.
To comprehensive the thesis, structural analysis and cost analysis of the three systems
are carried out based on cost estimation and new proposed design of two stories and the
3D Model of the steel frame with composite slab is analyzed using ETABS 16 software.
Environmental assessment is carryout of the three type house construction.
