A Study on the Construction Waste Forecasting Method Considering Material Loss Rate in South Korea

Abstract:

With the purpose of proposing a construction waste forecasting method specialized for construction phase, this study suggested a forecasting method based on material loss rate to forecase construction wastes with diverse properties. Loss rate of 124 construction materials found in South Korea and Japan was provided. Also to review applicability of construction waste forecasting method using material loss rate, the amount of construction waste found using existing construction waste forecasting method and forecasing method proposed in this study was comparatively analyzed on apartment houses.
