This book focuses on the development of communication skills in the context of non-traditional procurement and construction projects. It helps readers to understand the fundamentals of non-traditional procurement, and highlights the inherent communication challenges that arise, as well as how to solve them.The book is divided into four parts, the first of which provides an introduction to communication, discussing the theoretical concepts and contextual nature of communication as well as its benefits. The second part goes into more depth, discussing communication in the context of construction project delivery and non-traditional procurement systems, what these two terms actually mean, and what effective communication looks like in these contexts. Part III offers solutions to the inherent challenges of communication, including the use of information and communications technology, while the book’s fourth and final part explores the future of construction communication. Given the scope of its content, the book represents a valuable asset for researchers, professionals and students in the areas of procurement management and construction management.

This book contains the proceedings of ICIDA 2023. The conference is a platform for deliberating the delivery and management of infrastructure in Africa in the face of a changing climate. It helped to engage various stakeholders, in the continent and beyond, on how to develop and deliver sustainable and resilient infrastructure against climate variabilities. This book brings together the experiences, of participants, gathered through many years of research and practice across various fields of infrastructure development that can help shape the future of the African continent.

This book focuses on the demand side approach in building decarbonisation within the context of developing countries. This book is embedded within the poverty-urbanisation framework and provides understanding of the unique challenges faced by developing countries. It provides key pathways for decarbonising the demand side of building energy in developing economies.  This book is divided into five parts. The first part provides introduction to the building energy industry within the developing context and a backdrop on decarbonisation. This establishes the main theme as well the key concepts that will undergird the discussion of the pathways within the book. The second part delves into building design and various elements that influence building decarbonisation at the design stage. The third part explores the building material and looks at local sustainable materials, emerging circular materials and various indigenous construction methods. The fourth part looks at the array of renewable technologies available, the challenges and the level of uptake. Further, it proffers solutions on increasing their usage within the developing country context. The final part goes into issues related with building assessment, building regulations and urbanisation.  This book provides a guide for emerging countries' demand-side decarbonisation of building energy.
