摘要

可持续性被认为是每一项全球政策变化的核心部分,因为特定政策可能对已经受到威胁的环境和社会产生负面影响。虽然可持续性在发达国家的建筑部门得到了极大的重视,但在发展中国家似乎不是这样。因此,本研究探讨了发展中国家利比亚建筑业在将可持续性做法纳入其共同活动范围方面所面临的挑战。本研究采用问卷调查与专家访谈相结合的研究方法。使用统计技术对完成的问卷(134号)进行分析。调查结果为10位专家的访谈主题提供了信息,并通过内容分析对收集的数据进行了分析。研究结果说明,在利比亚建筑业的实践中,对建筑可持续性的认识较弱。此外,支助机构未能有效实施可持续性准则,缺乏更严格的立法、建筑规范或标准,也被认为是主要的挑战。该研究提供了对可持续性的更好理解,并澄清了利益相关者面临的主要挑战,以及他们为了改善利比亚的可持续建筑而必须考虑的问题,从而促进了知识的发展。该研究的实际意义包括确定避免或尽量减少挑战及其后果的策略。

Challenges to the Implementation of Sustainable Construction Practices in Libya
Sustainability is considered to be a central part of every global policy change because of the likelihood of negative effects of particular policies on the already endangered environment and on society. Whilst sustainability is receiving significant attention in construction sectors in developed countries, this seems to be less true for developing countries. Thus, this study explores the challenges faced by the construction sector in one such developing country, Libya, in integrating sustainability practices into its common scope of activities. The study adopted a mixed research approach consisting of a questionnaire survey and expert interviews. Completed questionnaires (134 No.) were analysed using statistical techniques. The findings from the survey informed the topics for the interviews with 10 experts where the collected data were analysed through content analysis. The outcomes of the research explained that the awareness of sustainability in construction was weak in the practice of the Libyan construction sector. Additionally, the failure of supporting institutions to create an effective application of sustainability guidelines, lack of stricter legislation, building codes or standards were also found to be major challenges. The study contributed to knowledge by providing a better understanding of sustainability and clarified the main challenges faced by the stakeholders and which they have to consider in order to improve sustainable construction in Libya. The practical implications of the study include the strategies identified to avoid or minimise the challenges and their consequences.
