How to: A practical guide to reusing materials in real projects
Marks Barfield Architects have been developing methods and techniques that enable a process of re-use, both within a refurbishment and when taken from the donor and re-used in a recipient building. This is with a wider view to re-use materials in all projects. Taking their client along with them on the journey, they have taken an elemental approach to the re-use of many different categories of materials encountering a whole range of different practical, timescale, financial and legal challenges:
- Deconstruction
- Storage
- Warranties
- Occupier perception
Come and hear how these innovative methods are delivering re-use, diverting materials from recycling and waste, cutting embodied energy and at either an equivalent cost or cheaper than specifying new products.
