摘要：

The construction sector has been a major source of global greenhouse gas emissions over the years, and as a mitigation measure the concept of green construction has been gaining more significance. This study investigates green construction from a new perspective concerning site management methods for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The potential driving measures for site management were systematically analysed in three phases of green construction (G.C.), including pre-construction, construction, and post-construction. Quantitative data were collected through surveys and analysed using AMOS 26.0 software to generate a structural equation model (SEM). The developed SEM showcased the essential driving paths, measures contributing to the site management, and their interrelation in the three essential phases of green construction. The proposed theoretical framework can assist as a foundation for sustainable site management involved in green construction. This study also prescribes the appropriate measures and practical guidance for promoting site management while choosing green construction. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
