Challenges and the way forward for building materials management in building adaptation projects
Global sustainability issues have led Malaysia, amongst other concerned countries to develop strategies on hazardous materials identification for construction industries. However, very few published literatures are found on the effects of building materials to social health, the environment and econ...
