Abstract

The need to accommodate the increasing housing and infrastructure demands of the growing global population has led to a significant rise in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of built environments worldwide. One of the critical dilemmas facing us in the 21st century is therefore how to meet the expanding construction demands of modern societies while simultaneously reducing the carbon footprint of the construction sector.
