REUSE IS THE NEW USE

Towards the industrial reuse process

BY Amilia Björklund & Maja Lindborg

Working towards a circular building industry is one of the prerequisites for solving the issues on large amounts of demolition waste and emissions from new construction projects. This includes the circulation and reuse of existing building materials and components. What is lacking are established processes for designing with reused building parts on an industrial scale. The aim of this thesis is therefore to explore how inventories and information management can facilitate a reuse design process on an industrial scale.
