A Scoping Review of Construction and Demolition Waste Management and the Sustainable Development Goals: Evidence From Brazil

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S2, Page 544-555, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Construction and demolition waste (CDW) management poses significant challenges but also offers opportunities for advancing sustainable development, especially in rapidly urbanizing countries such as Brazil. This scoping review examines the relationship between CDW management practices in Brazil and the United Nations Sustainable Development ...

Hot In-Place Recycling of Asphalt Pavements [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Abstract : This report contains the results of a literature search concerning hot in-place asphalt pavement recycling. Current methods and procedures for hot in-place recycling were reviewed and the advantages and disadvantages of each presented. Four construction sites were visited. Each site used a different procedure to recycle the pavement.

Asphalt pavement surface course with recycled rubber [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Croatian Association of Civil Engineers, 2019
After the end of their use in road traffic, car tires can be used in road construction as an addition to bitumen mixtures. By adding recycled rubber, bitumen properties are improved and better behaviour of placed asphalt is achieved (lower sensitivity to water action and cracking, and good skid resistance).

Dusty Streets: The Challenge of Dust‐Borne Pollutants in Low‐Income Countries

open access: yesCLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 2, February 2026.
Generally, pollution impacts developed and low‐income countries (LICs) to different extents, and the disease burden due to roadway dust is not uniformly distributed across socio‐economic classes. Roadway dust materials from paved and unpaved urban and rural roads were reported to contain organic constituents which are toxic and affect public health ...

Assessing Environmental Sustainability Practices in Building Construction Projects in Tanzania: A Mixed‐Methods Approach

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
The study assesses environmental sustainability in 97 of Tanzania's building construction projects amid rapid urbanization. Using the LEED framework, the study reveals a low sustainability level. Barriers to sustainable practices are such as financial constraints, limited use of sustainable materials, and regulatory challenges.
