This book, Handbook of Smart and Sustainable Built Environment, presents a timely and comprehensive exploration of cutting-edge strategies and innovative solutions for shaping sustainable and resilient urban futures. This volume integrates theoretical insights, applied research, and case studies from both the Global North and Global South regions. Topics span a wide range of emerging and critical themes: sustainable development principles, smart facade technologies, IoT integration in buildings, net-zero energy strategies for tropical climates, sky radiative cooling systems, adaptive reuse of heritage cities, and green infrastructure planning. Special attention is given to forward-looking approaches like Industry 5.0, prefabricated construction trends in China, community engagement in renewable energy transitions, and data-driven urban planning through traffic sensors. A key feature of this book is its interdisciplinary methodology, complemented by illustrative figures, tables, real-world case studies, and a didactic structure that supports both academic learning and professional application. Readers will benefit from a deepened understanding of how to integrate sustainability, innovation, and resilience into the built environment-from design and planning to implementation and policy. This volume is essential for architects, engineers, urban planners, policymakers, and students aiming to advance the transition toward smarter and more sustainable cities.
