Sustainability in the construction sector: A case study review on the implementation of sustainability practices on Building Construction projects
The global population growth of young adults is increasing tremendously, which ultimately means more demand for basic needs like shelter (housing) and infrastructure, by extension. Several studies have been conducted concerning sustainable construction and sustainability, mainly focusing on the design phase, sustainable materials, and technologies. More needs to be done in the construction phase of construction projects, yet implementation of all other elements happens during this stage, particularly material utilization. This study assessed the sustainable practices implemented during construction, designed and proposed a performance assessment tool for real-time sustainability performance tracking. Case studies were then used to check the assessment tool's functionality and applicability during the construction.
