Journal of the institution of engineers (India): Series ASummary: There is a need to identify a well-defined set of sustainable performance indicators to advance and implement the concept of sustainable construction (SC) in developing countries. Sustainability aspects change with location, climate variations, local context, topographical, culture, and heritage. In the present investigation, the concept of quadra-bottom line approach, i.e. social, environment, economic and technological aspects (SEET) has been adopted for achieving SC in developing countries like India. The objective of the study is to identify and establish interrelationship among criteria and indicators and rank the overall sustainable performance-based indicator using a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method. The results facilitate the development of a sustainable assessment tool, selection of sustainable material, and methodology for achieving sustainable construction. The adopted framework will enable decision/policy makers to interpret and implement sustainable approaches, models, strategies, and appraisals for achieving sustainability in the construction industry.
