      abstract = {The study determined the key principles of sustainability factor variables to be integrated to building projects for sustainable building projects delivery in Enugu State, Nigeria. In order to carry out the study, nine local government areas (three each from the three senatorial zones of the state) were sampled based on urbanization and population of inhabitants in the area. A total of four hundred (400) questionnaires were distributed to stakeholders in the built environment while three hundred and forty four (344) representing 86.0% of the respondents were returned and used for the analysis. The data was analyzed using common size percentage analysis, mean score using five point likert rating scale, severity index/ranking, regression and correlation analysis. The results show key principles of sustainability consists of environmental, economic and social factors. It ranked first with mean score of 4.40 and severity index of 88.1% while the social sustainability factors ranked second with mean score of 4.10 and severity index of 81.9%. the least in the ranking was environmental factors with mean score of 4.00 and severity index of 80.0. The work concluded that key sustainability principles integrated to building projects are design, construction with whole life operation and maintenance would enhance the economic welfare, environmental health and social wellbeing of communities in Enugu State. The study recommends that the integration of key principles of sustainability to building projects would require Government and community participation, in terms of finance, education, training and awareness creation through public private partnership to achieve sustainable building projects delivery and facilitate urban renewal programme in the state.},
