Dear sefians,
Sustainable construction has become paramount for the construction industry, as the construction is the largest emitter of CO2 emission next only to  vehicular  emission. Given the larger change in the environment as we are experiencing now, time has now come for us to contribute strongly on this . There is now a grater need to  reduce the use of cement and other energy intensive construction materials and go for other alternatives.
hence I suggest we can have a discussion  on this topic .

One of the solution is increase the usage of Pre-fabricated steel construction wherever possible
