The Selection Process Of Sustainable Technologic Construction Products

Abstract

Sustainable construction products consume minimum energy through their life cycles and do not harm the environment or human health during the obtainment of their raw materials, processing, usage, maintenance – repairs and wastage. Wrong selection of these products may cause material, time and labor losses in economic terms. Also performance conditions of the structure are affected and therefore the physical life of the structure shortens, its interaction with the environment is damaged and thus the users face negative conditions. Especially any incorrect selection of new products made from sustainable construction materials, such as steel or wood, constitutes a hindrance for the adoption and extensive usage of technology and causes the products to be diminished within time. Due to this reason, correct selection and usage of products that have sustainable characteristics in construction sector is important. A systematic selection process is required for making the usage decision of the construction products made of sustainable materials. In this connection it is considered that, with the model proposed hereby, that is constituted from persuasion, opportunity defining, obligations, design and selection phases, the correct selection of construction products suitable for time, cost, quality, performance, new technology and environment criteria can be achieved and their usage can be widespread.
