Strategies for circular, prefab buildings from waste wood
Open accessAbstract
This paper presents a strategy how to maximise timber elements and materials from existing buildings for the reuse or the recycling for new construction. The EU funded project RE 4 develops a new concept for disassembly to reuse or recycle timber elements from existing buildings for manifold application (structural and non-structural) and aims to bring waste wood back into the building cycle. Furthermore, an innovative design concept for fully reversible, prefabricated, multi-story residential buildings constructed from waste wood has been established to extend the buildings-life cycle through robust but flexible and adaptable design. Reversible connections, reusable elements and recyclable materials shall minimise future waste when buildings reach their end of life. A two-story prototype shall proof the concept and deliver figures for easy installation, dismantling and future reuse. The research aims to show how current practice can be overcome and design for disassembly can be achieved.

The use of standard and, whenever possible, glueless wood elements in new constructions can increase the reuse of wood elements.
“Klinge et al. (2019) recommended the use of standard and, 117 whenever possible, glueless wood elements in new constructions in order to increase the reuse 118 of wood elements.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
