Sustainability and Construction

The Global Context And the New Zealand Perspective

Inhalt

Sustainability and Construction: The Global Context And the New Zealand Perspective explores various dimensions of sustainability in the construction domain. Commencing with a comprehensive discourse on sustainability, it moves through a discussion of sustainability in the various phases of a construction project, balanced by associated domains such as supply chains, logistics, delivery models, and waste management. As a natural follow-up, the narrative widens through building rating schemes, the Living Building Challenge epitomising circularity, followed by technology as sustainability enablers. A discussion of sustainability assessment, benchmarking and reporting, and its corporate context provide a strategic viewpoint. Stakeholder perspectives and "wickedness" of the problem conclude the work.

The unique treatment of overarching sustainability themes in construction and their intersection with the New Zealand context produces a thoroughly researched, value-added, and highly visual text for academics, students, practitioners, and policymakers alike.
