A Digital Path for Sustainable Infrastructure Management delivers the much sought-after guidance that the industry seeks to embrace technological advancements, establish new sustainable working practices, and foster socially valuable collaborations. Oke and Stephen open with a discussion on key sustainability concepts and the crucial measures that the construction sector must effectively establish to keep up with modern-day challenges. Moving to investigating multiple theoretical and practical aspects of novel digital tools, they analyse how these services can contribute to building and maintaining infrastructure better while aiding the impactful realization of globally recognized sustainability goals.
