Zusammenfassung:Construction industry plays important role to support human welfare by providing access for living and moving. Developed countries are characterized by having good infrastructures such as roads, bridges, office towers, residential buildings, seaports and airports. To have these infrastructures, massive construction projects must be implemented by construction industry. This industry consists of several activities such as extracting raw materials, manufacturing construction's materials, construction projects, infrastructure operational, and after operational activities that are run by different organizations and companies. These organizations and companies configure construction industry supply networks. Despite of the positive impact of these supply networks in improving human and product mobility, these supply networks also responsible for significant negative impacts such as consuming high energy and material resources, producing greenhouse gas emission and creating waste. To monitor and maintain these negative impacts, a sustainability assessment process is required. This paper aims to review sustainability assessment process in construction industry supply networks. It was found that different indicators are required for assessing activities in each stage of supply networks.
