This analysis reveals how sustainable construction enhances economic growth and social well-being in Nigeria, suggesting key technological integrations.
This study explored how sustainable construction affects Nigeria’s economy and society, using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and Geospatial Analysis for a detailed review. With a 94.6% response rate from key figures in Nigeria's construction industry, the research found that sustainable construction greatly improves economic growth, creates jobs, and increases market value. It also promotes social well-being and supports environmental protection. The study highlighted the essential role of new technologies and community resilience in enhancing these benefits. It pointed out that advanced technologies and resilient practices need to be integrated into construction for even greater impact. Additionally, the study found that urban areas are adopting sustainable practices more quickly and reaping more benefits than rural regions. These findings offer valuable guidance for policymakers, industry experts, and researchers, stressing the importance of promoting sustainable construction for long-term economic stability and environmental care in Nigeria. The study ended by suggesting targeted efforts to spread sustainable practices, particularly in less developed regions, and recommended future research into the long-term effects of these practices on global sustainability issues.
