Re-usage of Concrete Elements: To determine their new possible environment

Abstract [en]

40% of the energy consumption in Sweden is used in the construction industry. Recycling – including re-usage, recycling and energy recovery – could possibly reduce this energy consumption. Re-usage gives the largest energy savings, evaluated by calculating the recycling potential. Designing for disassembly means planning how structures can easily be disassembled into original components and then recycled. Concrete elements must be designed, documented and assessedregarding reinforcement, cutting locations and degradation, respectively, for a safe reusage in new environments. A plan is designed for how to assess concrete elements and for which new environments they can be used in.
