Waste derived from constructions and demolitions creates an opportunity to lower the carbon footprint of buildings. As bricks and concrete make up two of the most common construction materials world-wide, once the buildings they are built into, reach their end life, a large portion of the waste becomes available for reuse, rich in properties...

Mangana, Danai (author)
Building construction is a material-intensive process known for depleting natural resources, mainly gravel and sand, used in concrete production. At the same time, building demolition generates large amounts of construction and demolition waste (CDW), primarily consisting of end-of-life (EOL) concrete, a significant waste flow occurring in...

The construction sector is the biggest driver of resource consumption and waste generation in Europe. The European Union (EU) is making efforts to move from its traditional linear resource and waste management system in the construction sector to a level of high circularity. Based on the theory of circular economy, a new paradigm called waste...

In the Netherlands, yearly 33 Mton new concrete (roughly 15 billion m3) is producewhile 12 Mton concrete waste becomes available. Recycling of the yearly 12 Mton concrete waste results in roughly 7 Mton coarse recycled concrete aggregate (CRCA) and 5 Mton fine recycled concrete aggregates (fRCA). Currently, fRCA is not used in structural...

Abstract only - The existing construction waste recycling technologies and standards have been long applied in construction and demolition (C&D) waste recycling, mainly focused on the production and use of coarse recycled aggregates. Very few papers and process focus on the production of recycled sand although some previous results show that...

A comparative case study of the current legislation and state of the art of practical procedures and methodologies used for the treatment of Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) between France and Belgium (Flanders and Wallonia) will be presented in the framework of the project VALDEM (Interreg Va France-Wallonie-Vlaanderen Convention n°1.1...

In many developing countries, the rapid growth of town and cities has generated a rising levels of waste and illegal dumps have become a serious issue. The booming construction industry in Mongolia has resulted in the production of massive amounts of CDW which is one of the largest waste streams. In Ulaanbaatar (UB) and other cities in Mongolia,...

The waste management is a pregnant problematic in the European continent and in France too. The new paradigm called circular economy aims to be driver for the waste valorization. This objective is particularly applied in the civil engineering, the first generator of CDW (Construction and Demolition Waste) in France. In this context, except the...

This paper investigates whether the model uncertainty of reinforced recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) beams subjected to bending differs from that of reinforced natural aggregate concrete (NAC) beams. An introductory remark concerning the importance of the codification of RAC structural design is made and notions concerning model uncertainties...

Construction and demolition waste (CDW) from building constructions are heterogeneous mixtures, containing clay brick, mineral bounded building materials, like concrete, calcium silicate unit, aerated concrete and lightweight concrete, mortar, plaster, insulation material, wood, plastic etc. Even after processing – such as presorting by hand,...

The concept of circular economy envisages that the highest utility and value of a material can be achieved through proper management along its all life cycle. Therefore reducing waste, through increased reuse and recycling, is a major driver to close the loop. Within this framework, construction and demolition waste, which constitutes up to 30%...

Research on construction and demolition waste (CDW) has been identified by the European Commission as a priority due to large volumes generated and high potential for reuse and recycling. Around 750 million tons of CDW are generated yearly in Europe, accounting for 25%-30% of the total waste. The average recovery rate for EU27 is below 50%. RE4 ...

Siltation of harbour basins and navigation channels is a serious problem in the port of Rotterdam as well in many other harbours all over the world. Due to siltation, basins and channels require frequent maintenance dredging to guarantee safe navigational depths. The costs associated with these dredging activities are quite high. To keep the...
