Construction and Demolition Waste-based “Green” Demountable Structural Components

Grant period	2021-09-15 - 2023-09-14
Funding body	European Union
Call number	H2020-MSCA-IF-2019
Grant number	894100
Identifier	G:(EU-Grant)894100

Note: Generation of high volumes of construction and demolition waste (CDW) is seriously problematic from environmental, economic and societal perspectives. Furthermore, CDW is generally managed by the proposition of low-tech recycling applications which are costly, energy-inefficient and unsustainable. Within the scope of the current project, a new construction paradigm composed of pre-fabricated large-scale elements produced with 100% recycled “green” materials out of CDW that can be easily assembled/disassembled according to a cradle-to-cradle design approach is proposed. Current project will not only propose completely “green” solutions on materials’ basis but also on structural basis by developing geopolymeric (cement-free) concrete mixtures, ingredients of which will be obtained completely from CDW and large-scale structural components that will be easily demountable without creating extra waste and consuming too much energy. The action will also develop and enhance the research fellow’s transferable skills necessary for thriving his career in a flourishing area that underpins innovative technological development across a range of diverse disciplines and will make a marked impact on know-how exchange of interdisciplinary research expertise, breaking the common trend in construction industry and strengthening the ties among researchers/engineers who work on construction materials and structural aspects.
