It examines how cities can reduce their carbon footprint, improve air quality, and enhance the quality of life for residents by adopting sustainable transport solutions. The book focuses on integrating environmental, social, and economic aspects to create transportation systems that are efficient, accessible, and eco-friendly. Topics covered may include the implementation of green public transport, the role of technology in smart transportation, and the challenges of transitioning to sustainable urban mobility in different regions. Also, it explores the advancements and practices that support sustainability in the construction sector, particularly in the development and improvement of concrete. Furthermore, it covers the use of eco-friendly materials, innovative construction techniques, and strategies to minimize the environmental impact of construction activities. Special attention is given to the durability, efficiency, and sustainability of concrete, including the use of industrial byproducts, recycled materials, and novel binders. The discussion also includes the performance of new construction methods, such as 3D printing, and their potential to revolutionize sustainable building practices. This book focuses on the principles and practices of green building and the role of energy efficiency in achieving sustainable construction goals. It explores the use of renewable materials, energy-efficient designs, and smart technologies in creating buildings that minimize environmental impact while maximizing comfort and utility. The topic also addresses the decarbonization of the building sector, highlighting the importance of reducing energy consumption through advanced building automation systems and innovative construction techniques. The future of green building, including the potential of 3D printed structures and other technologies, is also examined.PPN: PPN: 1926116895Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-ENG | ZDB-2-SXE
