Sustainability in construction can be perceived across several areas. Sustainable supply chain and cost management are two of them. If this issue is addressed in the management of sustainable building materials and waste management in the implementation of construction projects, in the context of sustainability, cost management and supply chain management affect the overall success of construction projects. The aspect of sustainability is based on reducing costs and, thus, also material items. At the same time, there is a focus on the use of waste or its economic and ecological disposal. Finally, sustainability means the setting up of logistics processes. Information and communication technologies can significantly help supply chain and cost management and construction waste management. This means, on the one hand, minimizing the consumption of materials and, thus, also costs, and on the other hand, by optimally setting up the supply chain and logistics, using materials and funds efficiently and optimizing waste management. The research discusses the impact of information and communication technology on a sustainable chain and cost management on various construction projects in Slovakia. The research aims to analyze information and communication technology’s influence on a sustainable chain and cost savings of waste in construction projects. The main research hypothesis is based on the assumption that information and communication technology positively affect sustainable chain and cost management of waste in the Slovak construction industry. Data collection was performed through an online questionnaire. It contained three primary areas of data collection: The first part contained questions about the characteristics of the research sample. The second concerned the use of information and communication technologies and the third pertained to their impact on sustainability and reducing the costs of the waste management process in construction. The research samples consisted primarily of foreign companies operating in Slovakia. From the point of view of the participants in the construction project, these were developers, contractors, sub-contractors and designers. The Kruskal–Wallis test was used to confirm this hypothesis. The research provides an overview of information and communication technologies and their impact on supply chain and cost management of waste in construction.

Smart technologies and solutions have represented an increasing growth in every industry over the last decade . Many of the smart solutions are focused on improvement with a view to sustainability. The basis of smart solutions is advanced technologies and interactive systems that respond to changed conditions. These technologies are increasingly being implemented in the field of construction and intelligent buildings or urban areas. The construction industry shows great possibilities for the implementation of smart and progressive technologies. However, construction projects represent a volume-intensive investment. The same applies to the implementation of smart solutions, which, however, can also provide savings. This needs to be evaluated very much. It is necessary to use evaluation methods of investments in these solutions. This paper is largely devoted to the evaluation methods of investments in mobile applications and smart technology in the construction industry. The research aims to conduct an overview of evaluation methods of investments to smart technology in construction projects. Research also describes examples of the use of specific smart solutions in the construction industry and urban planning. The output of the research is an overview of Evaluation methods of investments, which can be applied and used in assessing investments in advanced technologies in construction.

We are currently witnessing an increasing demand for residential, office or multifunctional buildings . Customer requirements are no focused only on the economic parameters of the construction, but also on the parameters related to the sustainability and environmental aspect of the construction. In addition, sustainable constructions can be supported by the latest smart technologies. An application of the sustainable approach to constructions is demonstrated by environmental assessment systems. A brief analysis of knowledge in the field of construction sustainability and smart technologies supporting especially the ecological aspect of sustainability is prepared. These findings represent the theoretical basis for comparing the sustainability of construction on selected construction projects. The aim of the paper is to point out the use of ecological smart technologies that affect the sustainability of buildings. The research was carried out on selected sustainable buildings in Europe which received an outstanding rating within the environmental assessment of buildings by significant certification systems.

Life cycle cost management is an integral part of buildings construction. The life cycle cost approach can be considered an objective approach because it considers all life cycles of buildings. Information and communication technology is one of the critical factors for the success of construction projects. Several studies point to the importance of information and communication technology use in life cycle cost management. Generally, information and communication technology can be helpful in the cost management process of buildings. However, few implementation factors of information and communication technology are used in the life cycle cost management of buildings. The research assumes that the most critical implementation factor is the investment cost for information and communication technologies used in cost management during the life cycle. The relative importance index method was used to evaluate and quantify the final rank of implementation factors. The Kruskal–Wallis test was used to confirm or reject research results that were statistically significant.

The issue of sustainability has long been the subject of interest in architecture engineering and the construction sector. All three aspects of sustainability—economic, environmental, and social—can be affected through appropriate construction waste management. Construction and demolition waste (CDW) is one of the largest worldwide waste streams, therefore, it is given great attention by all stakeholders (investors, contractors, authorities, etc.). Research studies show that one of the main barriers to insufficient CDW recovery is inadequate policies and legal frameworks to manage CDW. It is also one of European Union’s (EU) environmental priorities. The aim of the article was to confirm the economic potential of construction and demolition waste audit processing through a case study. A pre-demolition waste audit was processed for an unused shopping center building in the town Snina in Slovakia. Subsequently, a comparison of economic parameters (waste disposal costs and transport costs) of the recommended CDW management was performed. This comparison confirmed the economic benefits of environmentally friendly construction waste management methods according to the waste audit results, which would also increase the sustainability of construction projects. Additionally, the cost parameters of selected waste disposal methods could be another dimension of building information modeling.

Progressive technologies and practices are shifting the possibilities of building design and improving work efficiency. Constantly changing site conditions require different procedures and designs that take into account these changing conditions, whether it is a design solution, a change in environmental conditions, or just sustainability factors. Adaptive building design offers opportunities to cope with changing factors to achieve the ähighest possible level of building quality. This case study deals with the topic of adaptive formwork design for building renovation, taking into account sustainability. The aim of the article is an investigation and demonstration of the building information modeling (BIM) environment used for the adaptive design of formwork elements for the building renovation in the context of sustainability. The object of the case study is a building in the center of Kosice, Slovakia. The BIM environment allows prompt and correct adaptation of the formwork design to changing lighting conditions, ventilation, heating and temperature during the design of the building.

Technological innovations are spreading in all sectors. The application of innovation to the construction industry is not straight forward, despite the importance of this sector in the development and growth of the wider economy. One of the innovative approaches to increasing the technical, technological, time, safety, quality and environmental efficiency of construction is the application of radio frequency identification (RFID) to the building sites. The aim of the paper is to point out the possibilities of using RFID technology for construction and to describe the advantages of its application. The case study was chosen as a research method. The research object was a construction of “Waste collection area” in Torysa village. Three variants of RFID technology (component types and its location) application for this particular construction site has been designed and then assessed. The cost parameters of the use of RFID technology for all variants were analysed and described benefits of its use in term of time, cost, quality, safety and environment point of view.

Comparing construction to other industries shows that while they have increased productivity, the construction industry lagged behind. One of the way to increased productivity in construction projects is application of industrialized construction which presents a modern method of construction. On the other hand, current consumers require individually manufactured products according an approach “made for me”. The connection of individual customer requirements and industrialized construction is considered a challenge for modern construction industry. The solution lies in applying the principles Construction 4.0 which require the transformation of the construction industry towards the 4th industrial revolution, from automated production to a greater level of digitalization. The aim of paper is to analyse the options of customization (customer requirements) in the various stages of construction project - project conception and construction design, construction elements manufacturing and construction.

Any construction project, even one that is excellently planned and organized, is prone to the risk of unforeseen events and problems, which in effect can cause late completion of works. The paper presents the results of the research conducted among Polish and Slovakian building contractors. One attempt was to identify and assess the potential causes of delays in the construction works resulting from the provisions of the contract. The knowledge of these factors can help contractors to take protective measures, reducing the risk of delays during the implementation of construction works.

Information-communication technology (ICT) of 21st century has become a very powerful tool in all industrial segments in Slovakia, including construction. The development of ICT creates the potential for the application of more sophisticated systems also in the preparation and realization of construction through the using mixed reality. Mixed reality is the field of computer research dealing with the combination of real world and computer generated data (virtual reality), where are in the real-time computer generated graphics objects implemented into the real environment. The continuous development of ICT should also apparent in education, where the use of mixed reality in the educational process undoubtedly has great potential. The use of ICT also depends on the development of digital competences. The digital competences are currently integral part of the knowledge society and the part of initiatives not only social, economic but also a political dimension. Statement of the European Commission points out that the competitiveness and innovative capacity of European industry, as well as social cohesion is increasingly dependent on the strategic and effective use of new information and communication technologies as well as knowledge, skills, competencies of the European workforce and citizens. The aim of this paper is to describe the creating of the M-learning tool for intelligent modelling of building site parameters in mixed reality environment and its implementation into educational process and construction practice.

Currently, we are witnessing the significant impact of industrial activity on the environment. A recent study shows that construction is the third largest industry sector in terms of environmental pollution. One option to reduce these negative effects is environmental assessment of buildings, as well as the used building materials. One of the most comprehensive environmental assessment methods is LCA (Life Cycle Assessment), which includes the assessment of impacts within mode ”Cradle-to-gate” which is focused on assessment of a partial product life cycle from resource extraction (cradle) to the factory gate (i.e., before it is transported to the consumer). The aim of this paper is a comparison of the environmental impact of selected material variants applied within modern methods of construction. The comparison will be processed through the results of the case study containing three material variants of family houses construction in term of three selected parameters - embodied energy, global warming potential and acidification potential.

The sustainable building has taken off in recent years with many investors looking for new and different methods of construction. The traditional building materials can be made out of natural materials, while others can help to lower energy costs of the occupant once built. Regardless of what the goal of the investor is, traditional building materials and their use is on the rise. The submitted paper provides an overview of natural building materials and possible modern building systems using these construction materials. Based on the questionnaire survey is defined the use potential of traditional building materials for the realization of the construction by methods of modern constructions and then are determined the drivers and barriers of traditional materials through using modern methods of construction. Considering the analysis of the achieved results, we can identify the gaps in the construction market in Slovakia and also to assess the perception of potential investors in the field of traditional building materials use, which is the purpose of submitted paper.

The construction and demolition waste (CDW), which is produced by the construction process, presents 33% of the total waste stream in European Union in year 2010 (Eurostat 2010). A construction and demolition waste is generated during whole life cycle of construction - design phase, realization phase, occupation phase and demolition phase. On the other hand, the sustainable design of construction in the design phase presents possibility for the significantly reduce a volume of generated construction waste. In this phase, we are able to identify and quantify the volume and sort of construction waste. Based on this information, it is possible to determine the possibilities of construction waste disposal and the costs for its treatment. This paper deals with proposal of options to reduce construction and demolition waste in the design phase as well as in the realization phase of constructions. The first part of paper describes possibilities of modern methods of construction use in the design phase of construction. The second part of paper describes the opportunities of cost reduction for the construction ways disposal. There are also analysed the foreign studies focused on the quantification of construction waste generation in the design and realization phase because the waste quantification provides a necessary tool for evaluating the true size of the wastes and hence making the adequate decisions for their minimization and sustainable management. The conclusion of paper involves a proposal of cost prediction for construction waste disposal through the most widely used of Slovak construction-economic software Cenkros Plus
