Abstract

Global warming has drastically increased the pressure to reduce energy use in buildings as reflected by a stringent regulatory landscape. The construction industry is expected to adopt new methods and strategies to address such requirements primarily focusing on reducing energy demand, improving process efficiency and reducing carbon emissions. The realization of these emerging requirements has been constrained by the highly fragmented nature of the industry, often portrayed as involving a culture of “adversarial relationships”, “risk avoidance”, exacerbated by a “linear workflow”. Recurring problems include low process efficiency, delays and construction waste.
