Sustainable Construction


Construction is the process to build houses, buildings, bridges or any other facilities and infrastructures. It is a broad industry that can also cover mining and forestry markets. It is of utmost importance to deliver construction projects sustainably. Sustainability is defined as meeting our own needs without compromising the ability of our future generations to meet their own needs. Sustainability has three main pillars: environmental, social and economic. These three pillars are informally referred to as planet, people and profits.

This course introduces the concept of Sustainable Construction to students, professionals and the public. Sustainable Construction is the process to build in a way that is socially, economically, environmentally, functionally, and aesthetically balanced to meet today’s needs; and to provide and conserve resources for future generations.
