Circular Economy-Driven Construction Project Management Framework for Minimizing Waste in High-Rise Smart Buildings

The combination of innovative urban development and environmental awareness integrates construction project management with circular economy thinking in vertical, innovative structures. Smart buildings, as a form of modern building and construction process, exhibit excessive energy usage and, in turn, promote material reuse and recycling. The model of innovative construction project management suggested in this study describes waste reduction throughout the lifecycle of high-rise smart buildings powered by advanced technologies and circular economy thinking. Real-time monitoring, control, and management scheduling automation, utilizing IoT sensors, Building Information Modelling (BIM), artificial intelligence analytics (AI), and advanced algorithms for fixed resource automation, enable easy and streamlined resource control within programmable, adaptive, and responsive frameworks. This allows construction to transition to modular systems. Sustainable construction is based on all materials being in closed loops, with multifaceted collaboration among stakeholders involved across multiple levels, focusing on adaptive reuse through modular systems built for deconstruction, where stripping elements are reversed in an assembly line style. Collaborating through all these layers and incorporating phases that extend beyond proper planning (wrap planning) to pre-construction procurement, right up to decommissioning, would allow for reduced emissions, material loss, and more effective environmental impacts by adopting circular economy paradigms. In particular, operational activities that pre-defined waste genres, such as action transforming resources into cost-effective active waste, illustrate the framework's potential in advancing the city's waste management. This research contributes to the ongoing evolution of sustainable construction by applying core concepts of the circular economy, focusing on scaling through technology integration in complex building projects.
