Construction, renovation and demolition waste materials : opportunities for waste reduction and diversion : final report

Description

This project looks at a broad range of instruments that can be applied to the design and construction of new buildings and renovation projects in Alberta, with the ultimate aim of reducing the amount of construction waste disposed. The overall goal was the development of a program that incorporates immediate practical outcomes, including waste diversion and program funding, while maintaining an ultimate goal of improving building design to minimize environmental impacts. Although the project focus was construction and renovation materials, the proposed mechanisms can often apply also to materials resulting from demolition projects.
