Abstract :This study examines the impact and performance of sustainable building practices through selected case studies. It assesses sustainable design, construction, production, and supply chains, emphasizing the use of advanced materials like Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) and coated glass to enhance durability and energy efficiency while reducing environmental impact. Nanotechnology and wood innovation in construction are explored alongside insights into reducing energy consumption, utilizing renewable energy, and managing waste across a building\'s lifecycle. Case studies, including The Edge building in Amsterdam and the Treet building in Bergen, illustrate the efficacy of sustainable practices in creating enduring, eco-friendly structures. The study also highlights successful waste management techniques, exemplified by the Eden Project, demonstrating effective waste reduction, reuse, and recycling in construction. Overall, this research offers a comprehensive view of implementing sustainable building practices to achieve superior performance while minimizing environmental effects.
