| Abstract |
Today, many industrialized nations are limiting development that are harmful to society as da whole and are formulating policies to counter the environmental problems. Korea in following such trend, began discussion to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions to 5% below 1990 levels by 2008-2012, as the Kyoto protocol became a legally binding treaty on 16, February 2005.
In Korea, it has constructed many apartments and buildings since 1960's～1970's. Recently reconstruction of buildings increases to reform housing condition. About 300,000 ton of construction waste is produced everyday in domestic construction site. Occurrence amount is increasing continuously. Construction waste has little harmfulness, and it could be used as circulation aggregate after proper treatment. However, recycling rate is very low due to current work process and the cost involved in the recycljng.
Accordingly, in this study, we will offer basic data for other measurements on the occurrence of construction waste by types and processing method when demolishing buildings. |
