Advances in Construction and Demolition Waste Recycling: Digital Technologies, Management, Processing and Environmental Assessment presents recent research in recycling and reuse of concrete and demolition waste in construction applications. The book starts with a detailed introductory section on digital technologies that are used to enhance circularity. Part Two focuses on the management of construction and demolition waste, including estimation of quantities and the use of BIM and GIS tools. Part Three reviews the processing of recycled aggregates, along with the performance of concrete mixtures using different types of recycled aggregates. Part Four looks at the environmental assessment of non-hazardous waste. This book will be a standard reference for civil engineers, structural engineers, architects, and academic researchers working in the field of construction and demolition waste.
- Presents cutting-edge research in recycling and reuse of concrete and demolition waste
- Discusses techniques for managing construction and demolition waste, including waste management plans, ways of estimating levels of waste, and types and location of waste recycling plants
- Reviews key steps in handling construction and demolition waste
- Contains an entire new section on the use of digital technologies to enhance the circularity of construction and demolition waste
- Additional chapters are included on selective disassembly planning: robots for automatic waste sorting; laser-based sorting; usage of air jigging for multi-component separation of construction and demolition waste; and recycled asphalt (RA) for self-healing pavements
