Progress in sustainable structural engineering: a review

This paper reports an extensive review on the development of sustainability practices in structural engineering. Using the systematic review approach, the historical development, application, and advancements of sustainability concepts and practices in structural engineering are presented. Reviews are conducted in terms of structural design, construction materials, and sustainability assessment tools with regard to the triple bottom line aspect of sustainability and multi-hazard resilience. All three factors are summed up, and future avenues are discussed in the paper. The findings highlight that more integrated approaches are needed in the future to assure sustainability practices in structural engineering. Furthermore, it is concluded that the endorsement of sustainability approaches in structural engineering would be a pertinent solution for the changing landscape of structural engineering amidst the multi-hazard challenges.
