Abstract

Now-a-days, construction practices that have the potential to harm the environment are being carried out in an uncontrollable manner in order to meet the rapidly growing population's needs. Measures must be taken to maintain the world's ecological balance in the construction industry, which is one of the key sectors closely observing technological advances. The aim of skilled engineers is not only limited to constructing a building to meet engineering standards but also to do so in a manner that respects the environment. Numerous variables, such as incorrect design decisions, insufficient work schedules, unexpected weather oppositions, and defects in product supply, may influence the construction process actively or passively, leading to the production of construction waste on the construction site. Although it is theoretically impossible to fully eliminate construction wastes created during the construction process, these wastes can be managed and recovered. This technical paper looks into the potential of BIM applications in minimizing waste during the construction process. Different articles about the generation of waste during the construction process were studied.
