ABSTRACT

The urgent demand for sustainable infrastructure solutions, prompted by climate change and population growth, has led to a quest for eco-friendly alternatives to traditional building materials like steel and concrete. Composite materials have emerged as a promising substitute due to their strength, longevity, and reduced environmental impact, yet gaps persist in understanding their long-term performance. In Metro Manila, engineers and architects are pioneering futuristic building designs using composite recyclable materials, aiming to address the plastic waste crisis while aligning with sustainable development goals. The research aims to evaluate the efficiency of composite materials for infrastructure building, offering valuable insights for professionals in engineering and architecture. By employing a theoretical framework grounded in circular economy principles, the study seeks to contribute to sustainable infrastructure development through interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative methodologies.
