A TERRITORIAL CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM FOR A CIRCULAR LOW-CARBON BUILT ENVIRONMENT
RECONSTRUCT will (i) develop low-carbon alternatives to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), to be used in both renovations and new buildings, and incorporate Construction & Demolition Waste (CDW) and other waste as much as possible, (ii) manufacture construction components that use such materials and are designed for modularity and dismantling so they can either be reused or easily disassembled and recycled, (iii) embed deconstruction in building design and construct circular low-carbon buildings that produce near-zero CDW across their lifecycle.
Within RECONSTRUCT, ICCS is represented by one of its research groups, I-Sense Group. I-Sense Group will contribute to all the project activities and especially, the Block chain track and tracing, the Symbiosis optimization algorithm and the Data Management Plan.
