An Analysis of the Development of Architecture in a Dry, Hot Climate Using Building Circularity as a Metric of Sustainability

Sarah James

The present article has examined both the advantages and disadvantages of the architectural development process because the construction industry today has shifted to extensive natural resource consumption in response to the increase in world population. This has caused a shortage of resources and, as a result, increased construction debris. The findings showed that the evolution of architecture reduced energy usage by 78% when compared to the prior architecture. Thus, based on the Life Cycle Assessment, the diminishing availability of virgin resources and resulting rise in environmental consequences like Global Warming Potential (GWP) have been quantified (LCA). The environmental impact of new materials has been shown to be five times greater than that of old ones due to the architecture trend.
