Abstract

The research showed that sustainable thoughts in architecture is not a complementary element, but is a necessary element to achieve the building’s functional, economic and environmental efficiency and helps preserve energy and the natural resources, meet the current and future needs, water management and adaptation to the environment.
The research also deals with the technical revolution of building technology from a sustainable perspective, then monitoring its repercussions on architecture and the accompanying urbanization, in light of encouraging sustainable architecture and rationalizing construction methods and energy consumption, which is one of the pillars on which the success of sustainable development in any society depends.
The research concludes that the idea of sustainability must be applied in architecture, as sustainable architecture is an integrated scientific approach. The development of architecture and urbanism from a sustainable perspective is due to the technological development of building technology, which is thus It represents the continuity of the relationship between the development of materials technology and construction methods and the contemporary architectural ideas.
The research ends with a set of recommendations that contribute to how to follow sustainable development strategies with the need to encourage sustainable architecture through a new vision of building technology, taking into account the rationalization of construction methods and energy consumption.
