“…Any construction project's procurement process is crucial to its ultimate success. Because of this, the willingness and competence of the participants in the construction sector are crucial to the successful implementation of the right procurement plan without sustainable waste management (Lu et al, 2015(Lu et al, , 2021Ding et al, 2018b;Kabirifar et al, 2020). This type of construction is largely helpful in the reduction of CO 2 emissions.…”

The study has been investigated on conceptualizing the state of the art of cooperate social responsibility (CSR) in green construction and its nexus to sustainable development. The research objective is to find out the significant relationship between CSR and green construction and further link green construction with sustainable development. The data has been collected from the 319 respondents working on different projects in the construction industry of China. The study is quantitative by nature. SEM analysis with the help of Smart-PLS has been applied to test the hypothesis relationship and mediations between components of CSR, green construction, and sustainable development. Results define that green procurement as a component of green construction strongly mediates between corporate social responsibility and sustainable development, and green design and CO2 emission moderately mediates between corporate social responsibility and sustainable development. This research would add values, benefits, and knowledge toward reducing environmental temperature with the help of green construction occupying the effects of CSR on it. It would be helpful to change the trends in the construction industry to make environmental health protective and to boost the sustainable development.

La industria de la construcción es uno de los sectores con mayores impactos sociales, ambientales y económicos debido a la gran demanda de materias primas, al ser responsable de un importante gasto energético mundial, la generación de GEI como el CO2 y el agotamiento de los materiales litosféricos. La economía circular se convierte en un paradigma que permite la transición hacia nuevos modelos económicos. El presente artículo busca realizar una revisión bibliográfica sistemática contenida en bases de datos científicas de alto reconocimiento internacional sobre las prácticas de circularidad en la industria de la construcción. También contiene la caracterización de los autores, las palabras clave, los países y los journal más destacados según el número de publicaciones y su caracterización geográfica. En cuanto a las estrategias y categorías, existen elementos en común entre los autores y los resultados obtenidos, en su mayoría enfocados en las fases de planificación-diseño, construcción y demolición.

“…The immense amounts of energy required for the transformation of C&D waste into construction goods (Maués et al, 2020). The impact generated by the dumping of untreated C&D waste into illegal landfills has resulted in landscape degradation and in environmental pollution, which remains difficult to resolve (Chi et al, 2020;Lu et al, 2021). The increase in produced waste, especially C&D, has attracted considerable attention in the last few decades (Lauritzen, 1998;De Melo et al, 2011).…”

“…Due to the large amount of C&D waste production, the quantity of various building project waste can be measured by many methods (Kabirifar et al, 2020;Maués et al, 2020;Lu et al, 2021). In recent years, the estimation methods have been assessed by some researchers to improve them by providing measurement tools and software (Wang et al, 2004;Cheng and Ma, 2013;Santos et al, 2019).…”

The Construction and demolition (C and D) waste generation is a critical issue for the construction industry, which negatively affects the economy, environment, and society. This study estimates the penalty-cost based on the produced C&D wastes in steel and concrete skeleton projects. Field survey and the BOQ data were collected from five concrete and four steel skeleton projects. The difference of materials used and wastes generated between concrete and steel skeleton projects were evaluated statistically (ANOVA and Welch and Brown-Forsythe). A financial analysis was implemented for estimating the penalty cost. The study outcomes demonstrate that the amount of waste that construction managers estimated is significantly lower than the actual amount generated. Furthermore, 0.055% of the total project cost of a penalty was estimated based on the waste produced at construction sites. In the end, the estimated penalty was validated by comparing it with the six recent completed projects. The penalty calculated in this study could save the project cost and reduce the C&D waste. As a result, imposing the estimated cost as a penalty would force construction managers to think thoroughly about the generated C&D waste problems. This study also has a novelty and will add to the body of knowledge by using penalty-cost quantification model to save project-cost of construction material-based-waste, and it can be further explored by adopting more quality data and engaging different construction materials.
