Based on their background at the ETH Zurich and \r\nthe Future Cities Laboratory in Singapore, the authors provide both a \r\nconceptual and practical look into materials and products which use \r\nwaste as a renewable resource.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book introduces an inventory \r\nof current projects and building elements, ranging from marketed \r\nproducts, among them façade panels made of straw and self-healing \r\nconcrete, to advanced research and development like newspaper, wood or \r\njeans denim used as isolating fibres. Going beyond the mere recycling \r\naspect of reused materials, it looks into innovative concepts of how \r\nmaterials usually regarded as waste can be processed into new \r\nconstruction elements. The products are organized along the \r\nmanufacturing processes: densified, reconfigured, transformed, designed \r\nand cultivated materials. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA product directory presents all \r\nmaterials and projects in this book according to their functional uses \r\nin construction: load-bearing, self-supporting, insulating, \r\nwaterproofing and finishing products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\r\n    \r\n    \r\n        \r\n            \u003cp\u003e     \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe building practice side of the life cycle approach \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilding materials from renewable resources \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA systematic overview using specially produced drawings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46506441113810,"sku":"9783038215844","price":45.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_06eab2b3-0cf1-4287-aceb-56144892aa0f.jpg?v=1763634680","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo.ca\/products\/building-from-waste","provider":"Indigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
