Sustainable Architecture: The Eco-Efficiency Earth Construction

Abstract: Abstract:The appropriate choice of building materials can contribute decisively to reduce the energy consumption of the building sector. The increasing worries for the environmental impact of construction materials is witnessed by a lot of studies The mentioned worries has brought again the attention towards natural materials. The use of more sustainable construction materials and construction techniques represent a major contribution to the eco-efficiency of the construction industry and thus to a more sustai… Show more

“…At the policy level, Ragheb et al [ 37 ] analyze the impact of the introduction and practice of “green building systems” on local eco-efficiency differences based on local policy differences. In terms of green building materials and technologies, Sposito and Scalisi [ 38 ] highlight the important contribution of sustainable building materials and green technologies to the difference in eco-efficiency set in the construction industry. Thomassen et al [ 39 ] introduce a green technology indicator evaluation system to assess the technical, economic, and environmental potential of emerging green technologies in different geographical areas at different stages of technological development in order to achieve minimum environmental impact and maximum economic impact.…”

Furthermore, understanding is limited concerning consumer value expectations in the Finnish multi-story construction markets, which is critical to decision-making processes and the success of user-centered business strategies in the bioeconomy [46][47][48].…”
