Abstract The global construction industry is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, with conventional building materials such as cement, steel, and concrete being major culprits due to their energy-intensive production processes. As the impacts of climate change become increasingly urgent, the development and adoption of low-carbon construction materials have emerged as a ...
Urban areas are implementing green infrastructure and climate resilience strategies that include low-carbon materials as part of city-wide carbon reduction plans. At the same time, educational initiatives and digital tools are increasing awareness and accessibility of low-carbon construction techniques among contractors, architects, and engineers.
Low Carbon Construction Driving Sustainable Infrastructure
Additionally, construction professionals must acquire specialized training to ensure that innovative materials are used effectively within structural frameworks. Despite these challenges, long-term industry momentum continues to favor low-carbon infrastructure development.
Additionally, the surge in construction waste, the accumulation of marine waste, and the limitations of traditional building materials all necessitate technological innovation that will drive the transition of the construction industry towards lower carbon emissions, intelligent construction , and resource recycling.
