Sustainability has become one of the central pillars of contemporary civil engineering, responding to environmental, economic and social emergencies. This scientific article aims to discuss the main challenges and present the emerging technologies that drive sustainable construction in Brazil. Through a bibliographic review and qualitative analysis, the aim is to understand how civil engineering can be an agent of change in promoting sustainable development. An overview of the most widely adopted sustainable practices is also presented, such as the use of recycled materials, energy efficiency techniques and environmental certifications.
