Abstract

Over the past fifteen years, the growing attention of public authorities towards waste generated by the construction industry has been reflected in the large number of task forces, forums and meetings on construction and the environment, reports on strategic policy, the approval of legal regulations and government plans, financial resources targeting research and development, and industry investment and aid programmes. Already in the late 70’s European and Japanese members of RILEM with the esteemed Professors Yoshio Kasai and Torben C. Hansen pioneered collection of information about the technology, which in its most primitive version has been applied as long as urban civilisation has existed. They also took the initiative to several material research projects in this field. In Europe, the Council Resolution of 7 May 1990 inviting the Commission to establish EC-wide action proposals in the framework of the Priority Waste Flows Programme led to the submittal of the final report on "Construction and Demolition Waste Management Practices and their Economic Impact" (Symonds, 1999) and the drafting of the Work Document (Strategy) "Construction and Demolition Waste Management" (DGXLE.3, 2000). As a result of the Priority Waste Flows Programme, in 1990 the Commission issued reasons for future public intervention in relation to CDW: - It is the biggest specific waste flow (180 million tons annually throughout the European Union). - Most of the waste flow mass is dumped directly, saturating dumpsites at an accelerated pace or polluting soil and aquifers. - The potential for reclamation and recycling is very high; producing excellent yields both technically and economically.
