ZERO SERIES MODULE 05: BUILDING WASTE – IT’S TIME TO DESIGN

ZERO Carbon Design Series

BUILDING WASTE – IT’S TIME TO DESIGN IT OUT I 1 Formal CPD Point
Available On Demand I 12 month expiry

This module explores:

  • The problems of construction and fit-out waste
  • How much waste is produced from buildings
  • Current flows of key materials (e.g. concrete, steel, timber) – within an Australian/WA context
  • Local context of material shortages (e.g. sand, concrete sand, low grade limestone and plastic clays)
  • Current linear economy and why it is fundamentally flawed
  • What is the circular economy (CE) (an economic model that happens to be better for the environment/reducing carbon)
  • CE principles, circular design, business models, reverse cycles, enablers
  • Principles for designing out waste
  • Tangible case studies relevant to architects
  • What role architects need to play in a circular economy
