This book focuses on the preservation and enhancement of this heritage. As the building and construction sector is one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases, there is much effort to replace traditional materials with environmentally friendly materials. Great efforts are made to prioritize the use of eco-materials instead of conventional materials. There is a trend to use local materials, such as earth, stone or wood, due to their sustainability and highly favorable environmental footprint.
