Digitizing the Construction Waste Management Process – Studying the Attitudes of the Participants in the Sector

Abstract

Although the concept of “sustainability” has been known since the last century, it has acquired an increasingly key role and importance in almost all sectors of modern economy and development in the last decade, becoming a “good practice” for both the private and public sectors. Examples of sustainable practices and solutions in construction are also gaining speed and influence, although for the time being, sustainable construction has entered as a strategy more deeply in the USA and the countries of Western Europe than in our country. This includes the sustainable management of construction waste, i.e. planned and sustainable disposal, recycling and input of construction waste in future projects. The main goal of the article is to reveal the opinion and attitudes of the main participants in the construction waste management process in support of the hypothesis that there is a need to digitize this process in our country.
