This industry consumes large amounts of raw materials, such as stone, timber, water, etc. Additionally, infrastructure should provide service over many years without safety problems. Therefore, their correct design, construction, maintenance, and dismantling are essential to reducing economic, environmental, and societal consequences. That is why promoting sustainable construction has recently become extremely important. To help address and resolve these types of questions, this book explores new ways of reducing the environmental impacts caused by the construction sector, as well promotes social progress and economic growth. The chapters collect the papers included in the "Sustainable Construction" Special Issue of the Sustainability journal. The papers cover a wide spectrum of issues related to the use of sustainable materials in construction, the optimization of designs based con sustainable indicators, the life-cycle assessment, the decision-making processes that integrate economic, social, and environmental aspects, and the promotion of durable materials that reduce future maintenance. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $aaggressive environment 610 $aalbedo 610 $aanalytic hierarchy process (AHP) 610 $aapartment housing 610 $aautomation robot 610 $abio-flexi 610 $abio-inspiration 610 $abridges 610 $aburden 610 $achloride corrosion 610 $aCO2 emissions 610 $acompetitive advantage 610 $aconstruction 610 $aconstruction process 610 $acorporate sustainability 610 $acracked RC material 610 $aDesign for sustainability 610 $adurability 610 $aelectrochemical test methods 610 $aenvironmental effects 610 $aexterior wall painting 610 $afly ash 610 $aFSC 610 $afunction 610 $agraphene nanoplatelets 610 $aHarbin-Dalian Passenger Dedicated Line (PDL) 610 $ahigh-speed railway (HSR) 610 $aLife Cycle Assessment 610 $alife cycle cost 610 $alife cycle thinking 610 $alife-cycle assessment 610 $amodern slavery 610 $anitric acid 610 $aoptimization 610 $aperformance evaluation 610 $apiezo-resistivity 610 $apreventive measures 610 $arebar corrosion 610 $aReCiPe 610 $areinforced concrete 610 $aresource 610 $arheological properties 610 $aSDGs 610 $aself-sensing 610 $aSocial Life Cycle Analysis 610 $astructural health monitoring 610 $asulphuric acid 610 $asupply networks 610 $asurface urban heat island 610 $asustainability 610 $asustainability assessment 610 $asustainable business strategies 610 $asustainable concrete 610 $asustainable construction 610 $asustainable development 610 $aultra fine fly ash 610 $aunascertained measure 610 $aurban regeneration 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aYepes$b Víctor$4edt$01296141 702 $aGarcía-Segur$b Tatiana$4edt 702 $aYepes$b Víctor$4oth 702 $aGarcía-Segur$b Tatiana$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557642003321 996 $aSustainable Construction$93027113 997 $aUNINA
