A Framework of Integrated Sustainability and Value Engineering Concepts for Roads Projects

Sara Gabr, Mamdouh Saleh, Ahmed Hussein, Hossam Wefki

Abstract

This research addressed the critical intersection of sustainability and road maintenance, "Major Arterial System," explicitly focusing on applying Value Engineering (VE) principles. In the face of mounting challenges posed by urbanization, climate change, and resource scarcity, optimizing the life-cycle performance of road infrastructure has become a pressing imperative. Infrastructure projects ar...
