“…Kou and Ergu [49] prepared a special issue devoted to Satty's 90th anniversary and an overview article for pairwise comparison matrixes in multi-criteria decision-making [50]. Later Zavadskas et al reviewed applications of MCDM methods in civil engineering until 2015 [40,41]. Applications in particular civil engineering areas were summarized in a number of papers.…”

Sustainable decision-making in civil engineering, construction and building technology can be supported by fundamental scientific achievements and multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) theories. The current paper aims at overviewing the state of the art in terms of published papers related to theoretical methods that are applied to support sustainable evaluation and selection processes in civil engineering. The review is limited solely to papers referred to in the Clarivate Analytic Web of Science core collection database. As the focus is on multiple-criteria decision-making, it aims at reviewing how the papers on MCDM developments and applications have been distributed by period of publishing, by author countries and institutions, and by journals. Detailed analysis of 2015-2017 journal articles from two Web of Science categories (engineering civil and construction building technology) is presented. The articles are grouped by research domains, problems analyzed and the decision-making approaches used. The findings of the current review paper show that MCDM applications have been constantly growing and particularly increased in the last three years, confirming the great potential and prospects of applying MCDM methods for sustainable decision-making in civil engineering, construction and building technology.

“…Integrated design is an iterative and interactive process, a way of implementing the entire investment process, which, in a rational (almost optimal, [5,[23][24][25][26][27]) manner, in terms of cooperation of the project team-which includes the architect, the industry, the investor, the contractor and the user-allows creation of a balanced object from the viewpoint of construction and operating costs.…”

This article presents the architect's attitude towards the paradigms of sustainable development. The place and role of the architect in the implementation of the multidimensional processes of sustainable design are presented. Basic dilemmas and antinomies are presented. The analysis of architects' attitudes towards these problems is performed in various contexts, examining the architect's awareness and his/her environment in view of changes under way. The article draws attention to the status of knowledge, changes in design paradigms, legislative and organizational requirements. The importance of architectural culture level, the need for training and ways to support the implementation of new design paradigms through integrated activities are indicated. The research results, regarding public awareness of architecture and sustainable development, are illustrated, with examples from Poland.

“…A comprehensive review was prepared in 2014 [9], presenting an overview of popular MCDM techniques and their applications for construction problems. In 2015, the next two papers summarized applications of the methods in particular areas of civil engineering, including construction building technology and management [10,11]. Subsequently, more advanced hybrid multi-criteria decision-making (HMCDM) methods gained more popularity.…”

Abstract:The concept of sustainability has been expanding to all areas of economic activity, including construction engineering. Construction engineering is a complex discipline that involves designing, planning, constructing and managing infrastructures. In this Special Issue, 27 selected and peer-reviewed papers contribute to sustainable construction by offering technological, economic, social and environmental benefits through a variety of methodologies and tools, including fundamental decision-making models and methods as well as advanced multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods and techniques. The papers are mainly concentrated in five areas: Sustainable architecture; construction/reconstruction technology and sustainable construction materials; construction economics, including investments, supply, contracting and costs calculation; infrastructure planning and assessment; project risk perception, analysis and assessment, with an emphasis on sustainability.
