title = "Construction method selection for green building projects to improve environmental sustainability by using an MCDM approach",
abstract = "Environmental pollution is a challenge being faced by construction companies. They attempt to solve these problems in order to improve the environmental sustainability of their green building projects by using different construction methods. However, the selection of the construction method for building projects involves a complex decision-making process. To solve this problem of construction method selection, this investigation presents a Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) approach. The study yields a comprehensive and systematic structure that employs quantitative assessments for priority construction method selection for each green building project and also aids construction companies with regard to their practical application.",

note = "Funding Information: The exhibition centre project: The unweighted supermatrix M and the limited supermatrix ML are expressed in Tables 8 and 9. After computing the results of the evaluation, it is found that the consistency ratio (CR) values are all acceptable. This specific project involves the co-operation of the public and private sectors. The infrastructure cost is supported by the public sector, and the construction cost is proposed by the private sector. The former would focus on the perspective of RC, and the latter would emphasise the CO. The advantage of the PM construction method is that it is able to achieve the perspective of RC, although the cost is higher than for CM. From the aspect of the public sector, they would choose the PM construction method. In contrast, the private sector, based on maximising profit,",
