Modelling the Construction Projects Implementation Barriers: A Structure Equation Modelling Approach

The construction industry significantly impacts the environment and uses natural resources that negatively impact built environment. Conversely, green buildings can lead to several environmental, social, economic benefits. paper explores barriers impede implementation of sustainable projects in Iraq. It draws on a literature review field construction, as well survey professionals A total 17 major are identified classified into four groups reduce environmental activities. variance inflation factor (VIF) values dimensions were less than 3.5, indicating they independently contribute second-order constructs. Therefore, it is essential implement building practices, such using energy-efficient materials systems, adopting designs, renewable energy sources. Furthermore, findings suggest practices also help improve quality life.
