| Description | The construction industry is dramatically growing and developing worldwide (Joseph and Tretsiakova-McNally, 2010). Construction activities are supporting the large upstream and downstream supply chains, including the building material products, such as tiles, wood, steel, cement, bricks and glass (Australian Industry Group, 2015). Simultaneously, the construction industry also contributes to the environmental impacts comprising of high energy usage, over-consumption of water and natural resources, and generation of waste to the surrounding environment. Each year, the construction industry in the world depletes approximately 25% of the global wood harvest, and is responsible for the use of 40% of stone, sand and gravel, and 16% of water usage (Joseph and Tretsiakova-McNally, 2010).
