Abstract text:
The tremendous amounts of materials consumed, the high volume of equivalent carbon dioxide released during the processes specific to the built environment, its significant contribution to every national economy, and the perpetual social influence it exerts represent the main arguments that are transforming the construction sector into one of the most important factors in achieving the primary dimensions of sustainability at the global scale. It is well known that this industry exerts a significant ecological impact; therefore, civil engineering specialists should promote and use solutions that reduce the impact of the built environment over the natural one. Taking into account the above, the goal of the present paper is to underline the necessity of building new constructions in the city of Iaşi by taking into consideration the sustainability concept and analysing and understanding the issues specific to the local context.
Key Words:
