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.
