(3) Fire:- It circulate energy in the form of light and heat.Sun is the main source of light and heat.Care should be taken that the houses should be well illuminated and also it is safe from fire.So construction material shuld be used so that we live comfortably in all seasons.

(4) Air:- The atmosphere exista upto about 400 km height.It compositision also varies.The shape and direction of buildings should be such that they have sufficient supply of air for comfortable living.

(5) Space or Aakash:- It is most widely spread.Gravitational pull of different heavenly bodies,magnetic power, diffeent kinds of radiations and waves are constantly present in atmosphere.The houses and buildings should be constructed in such a way that these invisible forces of nature ant their energies can be fully utilised and their harmful effects avoided.
