Urgent changes are, therefore, required relating to energy saving, emissions control, production and application of materials, use of renewable resources, and to...
متن کاملMass Customization in a Knowledge-based Construction Industry for Sustainable High- performance Building Production
Today, with recurring resource shortages, striking economic crisis and evolving social standards a new paradigm arises forcing industry not only to focus on competitiveness but also on designing sustainable products and manufacturing processes with equal respect on economic, social and environmental impacts. From that point of view, industrialization has particular advantages compared to conven...
متن کاملConstruction Waste Generation in the Iranian Building Industry
Building industry as one of the greatest industries in Iran comprises a significant share of waste generation in the country. Since a large quantity of the generated construction waste is buried due to the lack of a recycling protocol, it leads to an undesired waste of resources and causes severe environmental issues. This paper provides a study on the problem of material loss/construction wast...
