Several reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the International Energy Agency (IEA) underscore the alarming levels of CO2 emissions and their short- and medium-term consequences. The built environment is a key contributor, responsible for 40% of greenhouse gas emissions and consuming significant natural resources. To achieve decarbonization, tools for predicting environmental impacts are essential, especially during the design phase, which is crucial for reducing the long-term impact of buildings. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is the primary tool for assessing environmental impact, but it is a unidimensional approach. A more comprehensive method, Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (LCSA), integrates environmental, economic and social dimensions. Despite its broader scope, LCSA remains underused in the building sector. Furthermore, BIM's capabilities in managing building life cycle data make it a promising tool for integrating LCSA into the design process. This chapter demonstrates the application of a BIM-based LCSA method on a real Spanish building, analyzing the impact of different materials and structural systems on sustainability. The results aim to assist architects and engineers in selecting the most sustainable building alternatives. This study emphasizes the importance of combining LCSA with BIM to enhance sustainability in building design, providing a novel and holistic approach to addressing the environmental, economic, and social challenges in construction.

This study examines the importance of innovations in social infrastructure and community engagement, in this approach with a particular focus on the healthcare sector. As support for the reflection the project CHRONOlight project is presented as a way to innovation that optimizes conditions for patients and medical staff, enhancing service quality and reducing costs. The significance of effective communication and interaction among internal and external stakeholders at all project stages is emphasized. Furthermore, the study addresses the management of communication risks using modern technologies such as NFC tags and caption-videos. The research includes recommendations for evaluating the readiness of managers to implement innovative projects in the healthcare sector. Findings indicate that strategic communication fosters trust, cooperation, and sustainable social impact. A stakeholder interaction model is also introduced to streamline relationships and maximize project outcomes. This model can be applied to various contexts related to social infrastructure and public health. The study highlights the need for comprehensive strategies for risk management and communication in innovative projects. It concludes that innovation, collaboration, and communication are essential pillars for sustainable development in social infrastructure.
