Reusable and Sustainable Building Materials in Modern Architecture

by Gülşah Koç, Bryan Christiansen 

Reusable and Sustainable Building Materials in Modern Architecture: Designing buildings and physical environments depends on social structure, social needs, economic data, environment, and technological development.

Planning these environments is heavily influenced by cultural and regional need, the existing environment, and the materials available.

Reusable and Sustainable Building Materials in Modern Architecture is an essential reference source that discusses the shaping of building design through culture and materials as well as the influence of environment on building design.

Featuring research on topics such as passive design, ecological design, and urban design, this book is ideal for academicians, specialists, and researchers seeking coverage on culture, environment, and building design.

Additionally, private corporations and companies are facing similar changes and challenges, with the pressure for new and innovative methods being placed on those involved in industrial engineering.

Reusable and Sustainable Building Materials in Modern Architecture: The Advances in Civil and Industrial Engineering (ACIE) Book Series aims to present research and methodology that will provide solutions and discussions to meet such needs.

The latest methodologies, applications, tools, and analysis will be published through the books included in ACIE in order to keep the available research in civil and industrial engineering as current and timely as possible.
