2021-4-12 The science behind building demolition is complicated and fascinating. Generally, demolition projects contribute significantly more waste than new construction projects. Buildings can be demolished in several ways, but some ways are more prone to material recycling than others. These building demolition statistics show just how explosive the process can be:
More2020-11-12 Construction and Demolition (CD) debris is a type of waste that is not included in municipal solid waste (MSW). Materials included in the CD debris generation estimates are steel, wood products, drywall and plaster, brick and clay tile, asphalt shingles, concrete, and asphalt concrete. These materials are used in buildings, roads and bridges ...

MoreOverall Waste Generated decreased for a fourth consecutive year since 2017, albeit as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared to 2019, Overall Waste Generated was 19 percent lower in 2020, mainly because of lower outputs from two significant industrial waste streams, namely Construction Demolition waste and Ferrous Metal scrap.
