Abstract

This study determines the awareness and knowledge of stakeholders on the required building materials information in Malaysian building adaptation projects. The projects may involve non-green hazardous substances hidden in the building materials used. These substances pose dangers to health and safety, disturbing the environment and affecting the projects’ turnover. Literature reviews on building adaptation and building materials information management found that vital information are seldom available. Interviews to 16 experienced stakeholder s support findings on lack of awareness and information on existing building materials that may contain hazardous and toxic substances. Thus, building material information is critically required for future sustainability.
