Study on the Paths and Scale Economy of Building Waste Resource Recovery in a Construction Site

Publication: ICCREM 2016: BIM Application and Off-Site Construction

ABSTRACT

Based on the circular economy principle and the regular which building waste produced in the process of engineering construction, the article analyzed the feasibility of building waste resource recovery about technology choice, input-output and environmentally sound. The paper structured the scale economy model of building waste resource recovery. The author proposed the paths of technology and strategy for the purpose to realize building waste resource recovery.
