Abstract

Material stocks are an important part of the metabolism of society. Due to their long service-lifetimes, these stocks induce long-term dynamics of resource use for their regular reproduction, triggering resource flows during construction, use, maintenance, refurbishment and at the end of their useful lifetime in the form of waste. This chapter explores the material stocks of residential buildings and transportation infrastructure in the EU25 and the way these stocks are related to the overall material consumption of construction minerals. Special focus lies on flows required for maintenance and reproduction versus expansion of the stock. The dynamics of stocks and flows are assessed from a systems perspective on inputs, end-of-life waste and recycling flows in 2009, and a trend scenario for 2020. Thus, we explore the potential impacts of the European Waste Frame-work Directive, which strives for a significant increase in recycling. We find that in the EU25, a large share of material inputs are directed at maintaining and refurbishing existing stocks. Proper management of existing transportation networks and residential buildings is therefore crucial for the size of future material flows. Halting, or at least decelerating, ongoing stock expansion is another promising avenue toward more-sustainable resource use.

Throughout this chapter, we use the term construction minerals to denote the group of materials we are actually investigating in this work. In standard material flow accounting, these minerals are part of the category ‘non-metallic minerals’, which includes salt, fertilizers and other non-classifiable nonmetallic materials. Construction minerals typically account for approximately 96 % of the nonmetallic minerals group on a weight basis.

Housing growth rates for Spain, Ireland and France have been reduced to the remaining EU average for 2010 onward to take the economic recession into account (Wiedenhofer et al. 2015).

This ballpark number is calculated as the inverse of the relative size of the maintenance-related material flows to the stock, from Fig. 12.3.
