Best Practice Tips for Using Reclaimed Materials – Free Guide

Article Type: Recent publications From: Structural Survey, Volume 29, Issue 1

Waste from construction and demolition produces a massive, virtually untapped, sustainable resource. Diverting and re-using salvaged materials from the waste stream maintains them as a high grade resource instead of down grading them by crushing or chipping. This free guide defines reclaimed materials, explains the potential of reclaimed materials, and provides eight best practice tips for their use.
