Abstract
Sustainability has become a central concern in the construction industry, as buildings play a significant role in global resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Today, sustainable construction is understood not only as reducing environmental impact, but also as addressing economic efficiency and social responsibility throughout a building’s life cycle. One of the most effective methods for evaluating the environmental performance of buildings is Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). This approach assesses the impact of materials and construction processes from extraction and manufacturing to use and end-of-life. With growing awareness of climate change and resource scarcity, LCA has evolved from a research tool into a practical method for guiding design decisions.
As industry moves toward lower-carbon, more resource-efficient buildings, applying LCA in the early design phases becomes essential
