Abstract To ensure appropriate construction-waste management and establish a resource-cycling environment, it is imperative that consensus and databases be created on the amounts of construction debris and waste being produced. To that end, waste generation rate(WGR) can be a useful approach. This study targeted Korean detached houses and examined characteristics in the amounts of demolition waste(DW) and related demolition waste generation rate(DWGR) indexes. Based on the material quantity data of the targeted houses obtained by investigation prior to demolition, analysis of variance(ANOVA) and post hoc testing were carried out between amounts of DW and location(i.e., project A, B and C), building structural type (i.e., RC, block, brick, and wooden type) and actual use (i.e., residential only vs. residential-commercial). The findings showed that all nine types of demolition waste produced had been affected by location and structures of detached houses; and depending on the use of the houses, differences existed in the amounts of waste generated regarding certain waste types.
