Due to the evolution of life in the last century and the continuing development to the present time, in addition to the increase in the presence of factories and laboratories and modern means of transport and increase the requirements of living such as housing and work and the resources of consumption of food, water and energy. All these things led to a large pollution in the environment in which we live. And the increase in the consumption of fuel and energy will lead to an increase in the proportion of harmful substances that will be put in the environment as a result of the consumables we use in our daily lives. Hence, there is an urgent need to preserve the environment and to detoxify harmful substances and human waste. The term green technology refers to the use of healthy resources and clean energy sources that do not contain harmful residues when used. One of the areas in which green technology is involved is the engineering fields, especially structural engineering, so that waste recycling and its use for construction purposes can be achieved in addition to building environmentally friendly facilities. This paper presents a review of the use of green technology in the fields of civil engineering.
