Construction activity in Europe has increased substantially in the past decade. Likewise, there has also been a commensurate rise in the generation of construction and demolition waste (C&DW). This, together with the fact that in many European countries the rate of recycling and reuse of C&DW is still quite low has engendered a serious environmental problem and a motivation to develop strategie...

Abstract Construction, demolition, and renovation activities generate a significant amount of waste, posing serious environmental risks. The scarcity recycling facilities makes it difficult to implement the new legislation, which calls for producing recycled aggregates. Moreover, lack studies on feasibility construction demolition waste in regions with plentiful natural resources aggregates is ...

The construction industry is one of the most environmentally detrimental industries in world, impacting directly use raw materials, their determination involving whole lifecycle, as well all surrounding environment. However, within building sector, transition from a linear to circular economy still at an early stage. Business models need be reconsidered include new and improved methods innovati...

If ever an architect bit the hand that fed, it was young Arata Isozaki, a mercurial and uncompromising architectural talent who would go on to secure establishment respectability with Pritzker Prize of 2019. But he made his renown designs exhibitions exploring themes death destruction, not least ‘Fractures’ pavilion for 1996 Venice Biennale, which sought stage aftermath Kobe earthquake from yea...

The paper presents the design of bridge blasting demolition scheme. methods has become preferred method for not only in war period but also where service life is exceeded. Compared with other method, evince more advantages as higher demolishing progress, lower cost and easier construction safety control. scheme contents position, parameters protections.

Abstract In this paper, we present the approach to complete Bell state analysis based on filtering mapping. The key distinctive feature of appoach is that it avoids complications related using either hyperentanglement or representation states as concatenated Greenber–Horne–Zeilinger (C-GHZ) perform discrimination procedure. We describe two techniques developed within suggested and two-step algo...

• A feasibility assessment method has been developed for urban mining in buildings. Demolition sites were investigated feasibility, skills and costs. Significant economic saving reuse benefits exist building components recovery. Experiments provide evidence rapid enhancement of salvage workers. The construction industry remains under immense pressure to reduce its material climate related impac...
