“…Many articles target the technological aspects of materials reuse, recycling and waste reduction (Pacheco et al , 2016; Erbs et al , 2018). This result is consistent with that found by Lu and Yuan (2011), who verified in their systematic review that 66% of the analyzed articles focused on reducing or recycling CDW.…”

PurposeReverse logistics (RL) is a waste revaluation process aimed at reintroducing once-used materials back into the production cycle. Public administration (PA) plays a strong role in influencing the implementation of RL in the construction industry through policy and laws. While much research identifies PA as an important driver in RL, no research yet describes how this occurs.Design/methodology/approachA systematic literature review was conducted on the theme PA in RL with 93 relevant publications retrieved.FindingsSix strategies used by PA to promote RL were extracted: (1) legislation, (2) government subsidies, (3) landfill disposal fee, (4) government inspection, (5) use in public construction works and (6) penalties and fines. Moreover, a typology built on these six strategies was developed, mapping 15 interactional relationships between strategies, according to three levels of influence: (1) encouragement (2) requirement and (3) regulation.Practical implicationsIt was found that legislation and government subsidies prove to be the more effective strategies, with the remaining strategies greatly neglected. Importantly, however, this study reveals that a combination of strategies are most effective when appropriately combined.Originality/valueThis study confirms the importance of PA in RL, in construction, while documenting the extent of current research. The resulting proposed typology, along with 15 identified future research priorities, is expected to be of value to academics and policy makers looking to advance understanding in this domain.

“…At present, research on C&DW treatment technology at home and abroad had been relatively mature. Through the research on reverse logistics in the construction industry, relevant scholars have provided a model that can effectively recycle C&DW for the location planning and capacity expansion planning of C&DW treatment plants, and this model has provided an effective tool for the design of C&DW recycling networks (Pan et al, 2020). Wu et al (2020) studied the characteristics of C&DW in Australia according to the cross-regional mobility of C&DW, analyzed the causes and impacts of cross-regional mobility of C&DW, and enriched the existing management theories of C&DW by adding the cross-regional mobility issues.…”

Natural disasters, new urbanization and urban renewal activities generated a large amount of construction and demolition waste (C&DW), and managing C&DW has become an urgent problem to be solved in the construction of "Zero-waste cities". Based on the calculation of C&DW generation in China from 2005 to 2019, this study analyzed the temporal and spatial characteristics of C&DW generation in China, and empirically explored the factors influencing factors C&DW of China using spatial autocorrelation and geographically weighted regression. The results showed that: (1) C&DW generation in China increased every year, and the overall distribution was characterized as "high in the east and low in the west", with distinct regional differences. The provinces with the highest per capita C&DW generation were Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Beijing, Shanghai, and Fujian. The generation intensity of C&DW in China and all its provinces showed a decreasing trend every year. The regions with rapid growth of C&DW generation in China were concentrated in the eastern coastal areas, with distinct differences between the east and west, and there was significant spatial heterogeneity in the growth trend.(2) There is a significant spatial autocorrelation in C&DW generation in China. Overall, the hot spots for C&DW generation were distributed in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shandong provinces, and the spatial agglomeration effect of C&DW generation in provinces was evident. (3) Factors such as population size, per capita Gross Domestic Product and the scale of the construction industry played a positive role in promoting C&DW generation in each province, whereas labor efficiency played a negative role inhibiting C&DW generation; there was significant temporal and spatial heterogeneity. Finally, differentiation and cross-regional joint treatment strategies according to regional conditions were proposed to achieve precise measures of C&DW reduction management.

“…Nußholz et al [41] examine potential business models to facilitate the economic reuse of building materials and changes in policy required to support secondary material utilization. Pan et al [42] extend the concept of recycling construction waste through the use of reverse logistics networks. The authors of [42] also acknowledge that the employment of such a reverse logistics system on a wider basis would require investment in local recycling plants and a more in depth investigation utilizing agent based simulation may be required to fully understand the implications of such a system on a country basis.…”

Distributed Manufacturing: A New Digital Framework for Sustainable Modular Construction

This paper explores the notion of the modular building construction site as an applied instance of redistributed manufacturing; in so doing, this research seeks to reduce the environmental footprint of building sites, treating them as small digitally connected subunits. In seeking to provide a whole lifecycle appreciation of a construction project, it is noted that the presence of a framework to provide guidance on the consideration of Internet of Things (IoT) data streams and connected construction objects is currently lacking. This paper proposes use of embedded IoT enabled sensing technology within all stages of a modular building lifecycle. An expanded four-phase model of intelligent assets use in construction is proposed along with an outline of the required data flows between the stages of a given building’s entire lifecycle that need to be facilitated for a BIM (Buildings Information Modelling) representation to begin to describe a building project as a sustainable asset within the circular economy. This paper also describes the use of concrete as a modular sensing structure; proposing that health monitoring of the material in situ along with the recoding of environmental factors over time could help to extend the longevity of such structures.
