“…Although certification systems rely on several international standards, local conditions and priorities are generally considered to promote energy efficiency. • Turkey, on the other hand, is a developing country with increasing demand for resources [52], and is at the start of the sustainability journey. Nevertheless, the recent Code for Building Energy Performance constitutes a significant step for energy conservation not only for certification but for the construction industry as a whole.…”

“…Camargo, Capobianco e Oliveira (2015), argumentam que um dos maiores desafios da construção civil, consiste na busca por equilíbrio do triple bottom line e sua aplicação conforme os conceitos de desenvolvimento sustentável. O equilíbrio desses três pilares deve resultar na diminuição do impacto ambiental, responsabilidade sócio empresarial e melhorias das condições climáticas.…”

O crescimento das atividades industriais contribuiu para o surgimento de debates, teorias e estudos sobre os riscos ambientais e sua relação com a indústria. Nesse âmbito, a construção civil como geradora de grandes impactos ambientais, tem sido foco de estudos em importantes eventos e convecções mundiais. Para tanto, cresce a adesão e desenvolvimento de selos e certificações ambientais como meio de mitigar ações e impactos da cadeia produtiva da construção civil. Nesse aspecto, a metodologia utilizada para o desenvolvimento desse trabalho foi a pesquisa documental. Como resultados, o estudo constata as principais certificações e selos utilizados no Brasil e sua crescente adesão. Palavras-chave: Construção Civil. Certificações e selos ambientais. Sustentabilidade. The growth of industrial activities contributed to the emergence of debates, theories and studies on the environmental risks and their relationship with industry. In this context, the construction industry, as a generator of large environmental impacts, has been the focus of studies on important events and global conventions. Therefore, the development of seals and environmental certifications as a means of mitigating the impacts of the construction production chain has been growing. The methodology used for the development of this work was documentary research. As a result, the study examined the main certifications and seals used in Brazil and their accession in the country.

“…Adverse effects of construction materials, such as greenhouse effects and effects of CO 2 gas emissions, have led researchers to look for less harmful alternative materials [1][2][3][4][5]. The blast furnace slag (BFS) is one of the re-usable waste materials that can be used in various civil engineering applications, such as in road pavement construction, soil improvement, and ready mixed concrete manufacturing [6][7][8][9][10].…”

Geotechnical characterization and bearing capacity performance of blast furnace slag Geotechnical properties and factors affecting bearing capacity of Blast Furnace Slag (BFS) are analysed in this study. The California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests were performed using fine and coarse grained BFS samples. The CBR test samples were prepared using standard and modified compaction energies. To examine the effect of pore fluid on bearing capacity, samples were prepared with tap and sea water. Test results show that fine grained samples have higher CBR values compared to coarse grained samples. Compaction energy exerted the greatest influence on CBR results and higher CBR values were obtained for samples prepared and cured with sea water.
