Abstract :
GREATER collaboration among architects, community planners, contractors, suppliers, and government regulators continues to bolster the widespread smart construction movement. Development of safer and sustainable structures has led to more use of local and ecologically friendly building materials. The trend today is to narrow adverse impacts on the built environment by internalizing costs, applying automation efficiently where most appropriate, conserving space requirements, promoting endurable influences, mitigating waste, and restraining consumption of natural resources. Websites described below are examples of the many online resources that address advantages, consequences, determinants, and components embodied in the greening of the construction industry.
