| Title: | A Guide for Minimizing Construction and Demolition Waste at the Design Stage |
| Authors: | Professor C.S.Poon and Lara Jaillon |
| Date: | February 2002 |
This guidebook
presents ways to reduce the generation of construction and demolition
(C&D) waste at the design stage. It provides a global concept to
apply waste minimization measures in design and shows local and overseas
examples and case studies. It includes design measures and concepts
to delay the generation of demolition waste of existing buildings, to
optimize the building life of new construction and to minimize waste
arising from building and construction.
