Building materials are essential to the building industry because they affect the quality, resilience, and overall effectiveness of constructions. This chapter tries to investigate the fundamental qualities of building materials, concentrating on their essential traits and selection-influencing variables. Examining various building materials, including concrete, steel, wood, and bricks, highlights their special qualities and applicability for various applications. The study also takes into account sustainability issues and environmental problems related to building materials. For architects, engineers, and construction professionals to make educated judgments and design safe, effective, and sustainable buildings, they must be aware of the basic attributes of building materials.
