Abstract

In a society that is becoming more concerned about the preservation of the environment, the construction sector is a crucial arena for the implementation of revolutionary change. Within the world of sustainable building materials, where innovation and environmental consciousness merge to transform the face of civil engineering, this research study digs into the realm of sustainable construction materials. The purpose of this article is to provide light on the way towards a more sustainable future by investigating cutting-edge materials, building processes, and the tremendous environmental consequences that these have.
