Pathways to Sustainable Construction: Innovations in New Materials, Construction Techniques, and Management Practices, 2nd Edition
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce our upcoming Topic on "Pathways to Sustainable Construction: Innovations in New Materials, Construction Techniques, and Management Practices, 2nd Edition". Given the significant environmental and social impact of the construction industry, it is imperative to develop more sustainable approaches to building and infrastructure development. This Topic aims to highlight recent innovations in materials, construction techniques, and management practices that can help achieve this reality. We invite original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that investigate one or more of the following areas:
- Innovations in new and sustainable materials for construction;
- Efficient and environmentally friendly construction techniques and processes;
- Sustainable management practices for construction projects;
- Renewable energy and energy-efficient systems for buildings and infrastructure;
- Sustainable design and planning strategies for buildings and infrastructure;
- Life cycle assessments and environmental impact assessments for construction projects.
We encourage submissions from scholars, practitioners, and policymakers from diverse geographical and disciplinary backgrounds. All submissions will undergo rigorous peer review to ensure we collate high-quality and original research. We eagerly anticipate receiving your submissions and contributing to the advancement of this field.
