Abstract

Project description: Reducing waste in construction is particularly challenging as it typically comprises many distributed small businesses producing accumulative waste at different points in the supply chain. This scoping study takes a systems approach to understand the waste streams in supply chain and on-site construction. It looks at the behaviours leading to such high levels of waste from the sector and the groups and initiatives active in reducing and removing waste streams.
