Abstract

Due to the rapid growth of the construction industry during the last decades, building-related waste has become a major source of concern from governments both nationally and internationally. Construction, maintenance and demolition waste is often neglected as it is perceived as less important than waste generated from operating activities. However, research studies reveal that waste is generated at all different stages of the building’s lifecycle and this has a profound impact not only in terms of increasing project cost but also adding to environmental pollution as the common type of treatments for wastes is landfilling and/or incineration. Reducing waste will reduce energy use, minimise degradation of the environment and reduce embodied carbon emissions. This chapter reviews the nature, characteristic and magnitude of construction, maintenance and demolition waste of buildings and their associated embodied carbon emissions. It also examines policies, initiatives and international regulations in dealing with the problem of waste and the calculation methods for the assessment of embodied carbon of waste in the various stages of a building’s life; it ends with a discussion on strategies of reducing waste and a case study.
