FOREWORD FROM PARTNER ORGANISATIONS

The Construction Engineering Research Foundation - CERF
CERF is an independent, non-profit organisation created by the American
Society of Civil Engineers and headquartered in Washington DC. Operating
since 1989, CERFs mission is to bring together diverse groups within the
civil engineering community to facilitate, coordinate, and integrate research
by the civil engineering community and the design, construction, and
environmental industries. CERF operates innovation technology evaluation
centers in the areas of highways, public works, the environment, and buildings
to help the design and construction industry expedite the transfer of
innovation into practice. By uniting voices and leveraging resources from
across the industry, CERF identifies needs, sets priorities, and organises
collaborative projects. The Agenda 21 on Sustainable Construction provides
a valuable benchmark and springboard for the future for the building and
construction sector globally.
Harvey M. Bernstein
President
The International Union of Testing and Research Laboratories for Materials

and Structures - RILEM
RILEM provides a worldwide network of communication throughout
80 countries, to bring together specialists from research and industry with
the common objective to promote progress in the design, testing,
manufacture and use of building materials. The RILEM engagement in
developing sustainable construction practices is demonstrated through the
manifold activities of its Technical Committees. A life cycle view on material
resources in building is an obvious need to reach the goal of sustainable
development and an environmentally sound construction industry. The
Agenda 21 on Sustainable Construction gives essential support to and
direction for the work towards a sustainable building and construction
sector.
Carmen Andrade
Vice President

The International Energy Agency Implementing Agreement on Energy

Conservation in Buildings and Community Systems - IEA ECBCS
On behalf of the Implementing Agreement on Energy Conservation in
Buildings and Community Systems of the International Energy Agency, I wish
to express my support for this Document. The well-substantiated need to
reduce the impacts of the construction industry on the global environment
makes it imperative for the industry to undertake substantial and rapid
improvements in the way buildings and other structures are designed, built
and operated. The contents of Agenda 21 provide a summary of the issues
and outline a path forward which can guide our policy-making and daily
operations towards this desirable and indeed most necessary end.
Richard Karney
Chairman
Energy Conservation in
Buildings and Community Systems Executive Committee
The International Society for Indoor Air Quality and Climate - ISIAQ
The Board of Directors of ISIAQ, together with its 500 members spread
over 40 countries, are strongly motivated partners with CIB in the Agenda
21 for Sustainable Construction. Sustainable buildings are those that protect
and promote the health and comfort of the occupants while at the same
time safeguarding the environment and making an effective use of energy.
The ISIAQ mandate is to promote the design and construction of indoor
environments that support peoples health, welfare and productivity. ISIAQ
intends to collaborate in Agenda 21 to the utmost of its professional and
intellectual energy.
