Concrete is a widely used material in the construction industry due to its versatility, strength, and durability. However, the production of concrete has a significant impact on the environment, contributing to carbon emissions, resource depletion, and waste generation. This has led to an increasing need to address sustainability concerns in the construction industry. As the world population grows and the impact of climate change becomes more severe, the demand for sustainable buildings has also increased. Sustainable buildings minimize their environmental impact by reducing resource consumption, minimizing waste generation, and improving energy efficiency. Moreover, durable and resilient structures are crucial aspects of sustainable construction. Structures that can withstand the test of time and natural disasters reduce the need for frequent repairs and replacements, thereby reducing the resources needed for ongoing maintenance. Sustainable structures also provide long-term financial benefits by reducing operational costs. This is achieved through measures such as energy-efficient designs and the use of sustainable materials. In this aspect, it is essential for the construction industry to prioritize sustainability to ensure a better future for the world.
