Abstract | ||||
Numerous studies confirm that construction technology significantly contributes to enhancing the sustainability of buildings. The research focuses on several aspects: 1. Use of advanced and environmentally friendly building materials: New building materials have been developed to reduce resource consumption and environmental impact, such as green concrete and recyclable materials. 2. Evolution of smart design: Employing modern design techniques enables the construction of buildings that facilitate better airflow and natural light, thereby reducing energy consumption. 3. Smart construction techniques: Utilizing automation and robotics increases efficiency, decreases waste and errors, thus conserving materials and energy. 4. Renewable energy: Solar and wind energy technologies contribute to providing clean and renewable energy sources for buildings. 5. Smart management systems: Smart control technologies contribute to managing energy and water consumption in buildings, reducing wastage. All these factors indicate that modern construction technology plays a significant role in enhancing the sustainability of buildings, leading to the development of more environmentally and economically sustainable communities. | ||||
