| dc.description.abstract | Sri Lanka is currently a developing country, with
the construction industry playing a significant role in the
country’s overall development. With the development of
largescale construction projects comes an increase in
construction waste. Construction waste has made the
construction industry a major contributor to environmental
degradation and pollution, causing negative impacts for on
the construction industry as well as the country’s economy.
Therefore, construction waste management is significant for
a country’s development. Construction waste management
in building projects in Sri Lanka was addressed in this study,
which identified the dominant types of construction waste,
current practices, and issues of construction waste
management. The paper concludes by recommending
sustainable waste management methods and waste
quantification methods. | en_US |
