Abstract
ABSTRACT Circular economy (CE) is gaining traction in the construction industry, providing a responsible business model to decouple construction activities from excessive consumption of finite resources. This study conducted a systematic literature review to consolidate and conceptualize the factors that induce and enable construction organizations and stakeholders to adopt CE solutions in the construction industry. The analysis revealed 88 drivers of CE adoption in the construction industry, clustered into eight dimensions, comprising knowledge, organizational, environmental, social, business, regulatory, technological and supply chain drivers. The study further modelled the path dependencies and hierarchical structure of drivers of CE adoption in the construction industry. Thus, the findings provide a holistic insight into the factors inducing stakeholders to adopt CE in the construction industry. The model can provide decision support to develop integrated policies and targeted interventions to facilitate a successful transition to CE in the construction industry.
期刊介绍:
BUILDING RESEARCH & INFORMATION (BRI) is a leading international refereed journal focussed on buildings and their supporting systems. Unique to BRI is a focus on a holistic, transdisciplinary approach to buildings and the complexity of issues involving the built environment with other systems over the course of their life: planning, briefing, design, construction, occupation and use, property exchange and evaluation, maintenance, alteration and end of life. Published articles provide conceptual and evidence-based approaches which reflect the complexity and linkages between cultural, environmental, economic, social, organisational, quality of life, health, well-being, design and engineering of the built environment.
