With good planning, it is possible to promote the reuse of construction and demolition waste and thereby both conserve the environment and save on material costs. In the future, it will be even more important to assess how buildings can reasonably be repaired or demolished into parts, together with how the remaining service life of the parts can be utilized in new applications. The best method is to implement demolition planning already as a component of construction design.
Reuse of construction parts is always worthwhile from the perspective of the environment, and can also be considerably cheaper than using secondary raw materials. The production of building materials and construction itself are, together with energy consumption during the usage stage, the most significant factors associated with building stock that cause environmental load. By reusing salvaged parts, the embodied energy equivalent to that required in the manufacture of the new product is retained as well as their economic and cultural value.
The current focus in basis of design is easy and efficient constructability, but in the future the designer shall to assess how buildings can sensibly be repaired or deconstructed into parts and how to utilize the remaining service life of those parts in new applications. In addition, the use of natural resources will be optimized in the manufacturing processes used for building materials and products, and recyclable materials will be favoured.
In practical construction, planning for the purpose of reuse and recycling is seen in accordance with the requirements in configurable or modular solutions in which the structures and materials are long-lasting and easily reclaimed. With good planning, the maintainability and repair potential of buildings and building service technology can be facilitated and the expenses incurred reduced.
The best way to promote the reuse and recycling of salvaged building parts is to introduce a demolition plan already into the further planning associated with the project. It should be an essential component in the design concerning the management of the life cycle of buildings and structures. In the demolition plan, it is important to assess the material quantities that can be utilized in various ways, as well as the demolition methods available. These are currently presented only when applying for a permit to demolish a building.
VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland studied the reuse of structural elements in the ReUSE (Repetitive Utilization of Structural Elements) project, which recently ended. VTT also proposes the development requirements for improving the planning linked with demolition and repair. Of these, the most pivotal are the development of the guidelines and legislation supporting reuse, in addition to showing, by means of example targets, the commercial and ecological benefits that can be obtained.

VTT: Demolition planning as part of construction
Council to discuss as petition pushes for historical landmark status
By Mitchell Schmidt, The Gazette
December 2, 2014 | 5:59 pm
IOWA CITY With demolition permit applications submitted and conflicting structural integrity reports for three mid-19th century cottages south of downtown, the Iowa City Council now plans to pick up discussion on the fate of the buildings.
The council decided Tuesday to schedule a special meeting within the coming week to discuss whether or not to schedule a public hearing on pursuing historic landmark status for the three cottages. If a public hearing is scheduled, a 60-day moratorium would be placed on issuing a demolition permit for the roughly 150-year-old cottages at 608, 610, and 614 S. Dubuque St., which were submitted Nov. 25 by Ted Pacha, the owner of the properties.
"I think the fair thing to do would be to schedule a special meeting to resolve this ...Its going to bring on an even greater avalanche of pressure on both sides," said Mayor Matt Hayek.
The demolition permit applications follow a Nov. 20 structural engineers report that states the buildings are unsafe and need to be razed.
Owners of the businesses occupying the three buildings, the Book Shop, Suzys Antiques and Gifts, and Moy Yat Ving Tsun Kung Fu Academy, have since been notified that they have to vacate the premises so they may be repaired or demolished by Dec. 8.
Demolition permits could be issued as soon as Dec. 10 unless a moratorium is enacted,Iowa City transportation planner John Yapp said.
However, a Dec. 2 report from Shanna Duggan, structural engineer with Morning Star Studio in Cedar Rapids, from her Nov. 24 evaluation of the three buildings, states that the cottages are structurally sound, despite some exterior cracks and deterioration, which is expected with buildings of their age.

CEREDO, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- It's demolition day in Ceredo.
Wednesday, crews are bringing down the old Ceredo-Kenova High School to make way for the new Ceredo-Kenova Elementary School.
School officials have been working on a plan for a new school since 2011 when students at Kenova Elementary started summer break early due to a sink hole. Since that time, there have been several plans on the table and failed bonds.
Last October, a new plan was announced. Ceredo Elementary would become Ceredo-Kenova Elementary and house Pre-K, Kindergarten and first graders from both schools. CK Middle students would be split up and sent to Buffalo and Vinson Middle schools. And CK Middle would become the new home for Ceredo and Kenova students in 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th grades.
An $18 million school bond, that had been rejected twice before, was passed in May. The money will be used to build the new CK Elementary School, build a new Crum PreK-8 and renovate Wayne High School.
Bidding on the construction of the new CK Elementary is expected to start at the beginning of the year. Original reports were to have the school open by August 2017.
Tue., Dec. 2 - "As soon as the second half starts, it'll be a running clock." The words of the game clock referee at the end of the second quarter indicated what players, coaches and spectators alike already knew in Clifton on Nov. 29: the game between host Centreville and visiting Battlefield wasn't over yet but it would be soon. For the second time in three weeks, the Wildcats ran up a scoring difference of at least 35 points by halftime, triggering the continuous clock for the third week in a row as part of a 56-21 victory.

Times Photo/Rick Wasser Battlefield senior wide receiver Matt Scott braces for impact against Centreville senior defensive back Bryson Hawkins after catching a pass from senior quarterback Matt Gallagher. The Battlefield varsity football team lost against host Centreville 56-21 on Saturday in Clifton during the third round of the Group 6A North Region playoffs, eliminating the Bobcats from the post-season tournament.
The words of the game clock referee at the end of the second quarter indicated what players, coaches and spectators alike already knew in Clifton on Nov. 29: the game between host Centreville and visiting Battlefield wasn't over yet but it would be soon.
For the second time in three weeks, the Wildcats ran up a scoring difference of at least 35 points by halftime, triggering the continuous clock for the third week in a row as part of a 56-21 victory.
It took slightly longer to earn that clock against Patriot last week but still kicked in late in the third quarter.
This time, it came at the expense of the Cedar Run District-Conference 8 champion Bobcats (11-2) in the same round of the playoffs (regional semifinals) that Stonewall Jackson fell victim to the 2013 state champs last year.
It happened on the same field too in a game that started as an even match between two high-power offenses that soon collapsed into a lopsided blowout.
Battlefield had the chance to set the tempo of the game but chose to defer the opening kickoff to Centreville.
