The construction sector plays an essential role in the global
economy, using many exhaustible natural resources, most of which
are renewable in low percentages. Moving towards a circular economy
is essential because optimizing the consumption of materials and
energy contributes to the development of an economic system that is
independent, more competitive, and more resilient in the face of
economic and social crises and various environmental factors. The
current "take, make, and dispose" model of the economy is
unsustainable, so a shift in thinking towards a circular economy is
necessary. This circular economy is an economic model that
minimizes the use of natural resources by selecting them
intelligently and minimizing the use of raw materials, favoring the
use of recyclable materials wherever possible while managing the
resources used and maintaining and reusing them in the economic
system for as long as possible. Circular Economy Implementation for
Sustainability in the Built Environment emphasizes the need to
implement a circular economy model in the built environment and how
to create a system that optimizes the use of resources and
construction materials while preserving their properties and
values. Covering topics such as automobile industries, lean
manufacturing, and operation strategy, this premier reference
source is an excellent resource for engineers, construction
managers, business leaders, urban planners, students and educators
of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
