How is it possible to keep the immense deposits of raw materials in buildings " active" and realise environmentally sustainable buildings in the long term? Besides " sufficiency, consistency and efficiency" , this goal implies the intelligent use of resources, the recyclability of structures, circular construction methods that reuse decommissioned materials, in short " urban mining" . This requires a rethink in planning and execution, thus posing a great challenge for architects and engineers. The Recycling Manual provides the necessary expertise for the associated paradigm shift in construction. In addition to successful project examples, this comprehensive and detailed guide provides in-depth explanations on calculation methods and tendering aspects.

Wie gelingt es, die immensen Rohstoffvorkommen im Gebaudebestand aktiv zu halten und dauerhaft umweltvertragliche Gebaude zu realisieren? Neben Suffizienz, Konsistenz und Effizienz impliziert dieses Ziel den intelligenten Einsatz von Ressourcen, die Recyclingfahigkeit von Konstruktionen, ein kreislauffahiges Bauen, kurz: Urban Mining im Bauwesen. Dies erfordert ein grundsatzliches Umdenken in Planung und Ausfuhrung - und damit eine groe Herausforderung fur Architekten und Ingenieure. Der Recycling Atlas liefert das notige Fachwissen fur den damit verbundenen Paradigmenwechsel im Bauen. Neben gelungenen Projektbeispielen zeigt ein umfangreicher Leitdetailkatalog relevante Bauteilanschlusse und liefert ausfuhrliche Erlauterungen zu Berechnungsmethoden und Ausschreibungsaspekten.
