In recent years, climate changes have become more pronounced with increasing temperatures, the frequency of extreme weather events such as heavy rains and sandstorms, and rising sea levels in some coastal areas. These changes pose huge challenges to construction projects, as new design and construction requires being able to adapt to these changing phenomena to ensure the sustainability of projects and protect them from potential damages.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">In this article, we look at the impact of climate change on construction projects and how to adapt to these challenges by using climate-resilient design techniques and achieving environmental sustainability in the construction sector.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: rtl;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"
