Abstract

The construction industry is one of the largest consumers of natural resources and a major contributor to global waste and carbon emissions. The concept of the circular economy (CE) has emerged as a sustainable alternative to the traditional linear economy model of “take–make–dispose.” In civil engineering, circular economy principles focus on reducing material consumption, reusing construction components, and recycling waste materials. This paper explores the concept of circular economy in civil engineering, its principles, applications, benefits, challenges, and future prospects. The study highlights how circular construction techniques such as material recycling, modular construction, and design for disassembly can significantly reduce environmental impacts and improve resource efficiency.
