The limit of natural resources requires attention from the construction industry, which is responsible for significant consumption in this area. This work aimed to develop a theoretical review research on the subject and the studies indicate efforts to minimize consumption and the effects of the impacts generated. It is also observed the development of machines and methods that help to achieve this goal. An exemplary
case is the CDW (Residues of Construction and Demolition) concrete block, made basically from construction rubble, sand, water and cement. Materials of this type reduce waste, increase production and bring together beauty and durability. The study on the block indicates advantages and disadvantages from manufacture to use, but highlights economic viability. The research identified the economic and environmental returns that recycling solid waste from civil construction makes possible for all sectors
of this process. Finally, the study found that the recycling of rubble or CSW (Solid Construction Waste) also contributes to preserve nature and reduce expenses. To develop this work, the methodology included identifying and analysing scientific papers available in institutional repositories that address the theme. It was highlighted in the study the case of concrete blocks with the use of CDW and materials from the CSW.
