Abstract | ||||
Sustainability emerged as a result of the architectural trend changes witnessed by the natural environment, and the various development, that affected the various sectors in the current era is the most important of the built environment and the construction sector, where sustainable architecture that respects the environment, maintain the resources. Furthermore verify the needs of users based on a set of environmental principles and strategies that meet the eco-friendly building and for sustainable urban spaces to be friendly with the environment. The most important element must be reviewed by the design of these spaces is the choice of materials used so that they are materials to achieve sustainable environment. So research aims to examine the role of materials and their applications at the urban hardscape level and stand on the most important points, and contemporary trends adversely affecting its processors and positively to their development. Also discuss general environmental and human health impacts of materials and products industry, provide tools, techniques, ideologies, and resources for evaluating sourcing and specifying sustainable site materials and its energy which resulting from embodied, construction, maintenance, and recycling. | ||||
