The Relationship between Architectural Materials and Human Settlements

Abstract:

This paper expounds the relationship between architectural materials and human settlement and elaborates the importance of production, manufacturing, performance and quality of architectural materials in protecting the environment and improving human settlements proceeding from the impact of architectural material improvement on civil engineering projects and human settlements. In addition, this Paper expounds the development direction and importance of new architectural materials proceeding from resource and energy conservation, natural environment and ecological balance protection, sustainable development of civil engineering and human settlements improvement.
