Build for Tomorrow: Sustainable Materials for Smarter Cities
Abstract: Sustainable materials are revolutionizing urban development by reducing the carbon footprint of buildings, fostering climate-smart and resilient cities. Key examples include green concrete, which utilizes industrial waste and lowers greenhouse gas emissions, and recycled steel, which requires less energy than producing new steel. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is also gaining popularity for its strength and renewability, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional building materials. Smart glass, which adjusts light transmission, based …
