Abstract

This paper deals with the problem of limited natural and non-renewable resources and their impact on the construction sector. A demonstration is given of how quantitative influences can be determined by means of an appropriate life-cycle approach. An input/output flow diagram and a simple formula are presented and discussed in order to obtain more knowledge of the problem being investigated. Besides the theoretical work, the paper also covers some of the practical implications and methods of reducing the consumption of limited resources and environmental losses in the field of construction.
