It examines the environmental impact of the AEC industry, highlighting its role in greenhouse gas emissions and the need for intervention. The study evaluates Saudi Arabia\u2019s green building codes, standards, and certification systems, including the updated Saudi Building Code (SBC) and Saudi Green Building Code (SBC 1001-CR). It also explores Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Building Information Modelling (BIM) techniques, emphasizing the need for a certification system that aligns with emerging trends and the local context.\n\n\n<div class=\"temper-view-resource\">\n\n    <div class=\"link-container\">\n        <div class=\"link-container__link\">\n                            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2071-1050\/14\/16\/10314\" target=\"_blank\">View the resource<\/a>\n                        <svg width=\"20\" height=\"20\" viewBox=\"0 0 20 20\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                <path d=\"M19 7L19 1M19 1H13M19 1L11 9M8 3H5.8C4.11984 3 3.27976 3 2.63803 3.32698C2.07354 3.6146 1.6146 4.07354 1.32698 4.63803C1 5.27976 1 6.11984 1 7.8V14.2C1 15.8802 1 16.7202 1.32698 17.362C1.6146 17.9265 2.07354 18.3854 2.63803 18.673C3.27976 19 4.11984 19 5.8 19H12.2C13.8802 19 14.7202 19 15.362 18.673C15.9265 18.3854 16.3854 17.9265 16.673 17.362C17 16.7202 17 15.8802 17 14.2V12\" stroke=\"#000A66\" stroke-width=\"1.5\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\n            <\/svg>\n        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"link-container__meta\">\n                            <small><strong>Organisation: <\/strong> King Abdulaziz University\/KSA Government<\/small>\n                                        <small><strong>Region: <\/strong> KSA<\/small>\n                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","info-category":[],"info-country":[362],"info-level":[],"info-region":[21],"info-type":[181,182],"info-state":[],"class_list":["post-5515","info-collection","type-info-collection","status-publish","hentry","info-country-ksa","info-region-asia","info-type-landscape-review","info-type-public-commitment"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"tpgb_featured_images":null,"tpgb_post_meta_info":{"get_date":"24 April 2025","category_list":{"info-category":false,"info-country":[{"term_id":362,"name":"KSA","slug":"ksa","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":362,"taxonomy":"info-country","description":"","parent":0,"count":3,"filter":"raw"}],"info-level":false,"info-region":[{"term_id":21,"name":"Asia","slug":"asia","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":21,"taxonomy":"info-region","description":"","parent":0,"count":259,"filter":"raw"}],"info-type":[{"term_id":181,"name":"Landscape Review","slug":"landscape-review","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":181,"taxonomy":"info-type","description":"","parent":0,"count":31,"filter":"raw"},{"term_id":182,"name":"Public Commitment","slug":"public-commitment","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":182,"taxonomy":"info-type","description":"","parent":0,"count":26,"filter":"raw"}],"info-state":false},"comment_count":0,"post_likes":0,"post_views":0},"tpgb_post_category":{"info-country":"<a href=\"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/news\/info-country\/ksa\/\" alt=\"KSA\" class=\"info-country-ksa\">KSA<\/a> ","info-region":"<a href=\"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/news\/info-region\/asia\/\" alt=\"Asia\" class=\"info-region-asia\">Asia<\/a> ","info-type":"<a href=\"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/news\/info-type\/landscape-review\/\" alt=\"Landscape Review\" class=\"info-type-landscape-review\">Landscape Review<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/news\/info-type\/public-commitment\/\" alt=\"Public Commitment\" class=\"info-type-public-commitment\">Public Commitment<\/a> "},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/information-collection\/5515"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/information-collection"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/info-collection"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5515"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"info-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info-category?post=5515"},{"taxonomy":"info-country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info-country?post=5515"},{"taxonomy":"info-level","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info-level?post=5515"},{"taxonomy":"info-region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info-region?post=5515"},{"taxonomy":"info-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info-type?post=5515"},{"taxonomy":"info-state","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalbim.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/info-state?post=5515"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
