Remanufacture and Reuse of Building Products for Modern Construction

摘要

The growth in the housing market in the UK has increased the demand for sustainable wood products for building of homes and a greater use of modern methods of construction (MMC) [1-3]. There is a need to consider the feasibility of remanufacture and reuse of treated timber construction wastes and other building products recovered at the "end-of-life" of a house. The reuse of recovered materials should reduce the demand of timber from non-renewable sources.
