This volume presents innovative work on innovative methods, tools
and practices aimed at supporting the transition of Asian and
Middle Eastern cities and regions towards a more smart and
sustainable dimension. The role of the built and urban environment
are becoming more pronounced in Asia and Middle East as the regions
continues to experience rapid increase in population and
urbanisation, which have only led to an increase in environmental
degradation but also rise in energy consumption and emissions.
Individual chapters covers timely topics such as sustainable
infrastructure, transportation, renewable energy, water and methods
supporting an innovative and sustainable development of urban
areas. Real-world examples are presented to highlight recent
developments and advancements in design, construction and
transportation infrastructures. The volume is based on the best
contributions to the 2nd GeoMEast International Congress and
Exhibition on Sustainable Civil Infrastructures, Egypt 2018 - The
official international congress of the Soil-Structure Interaction
Group in Egypt (SSIGE).

This book explores the latest advances in the field of
building management. Several chapters use new technologies
such as the BIM methodology for collecting life cycle information
and managing the maintenance of existing buildings, sharing valid
historical and architectural heritage data, energy analysis of
building envelopes, and planning new buildings or sustainable
building practices. In addition, other tools are presented that
focus on improving access to BIM information, open-source
governance, mobile applications to accelerate information transfer,
the use of blockchain, lean design methods, and open-source
software to solve critical path problems. Some contributions
feature the assessment of occupational risks in construction, as it
is necessary to plan preventive measures based on risk assessments
integrated throughout the construction process, which is another
important element for the management of this sector.
