The aim of the Circular Buildings project was to develop decision support tools to promote increased reuse of materials and a reduction in waste production in the construction sector.
Within the scope of this project, the following have been developed:
The tools developed were implemented in a demonstration project to refurbish and extend the Dr. Flávio Gonçalves Basic School in Póvoa de Varzim.
In addition to these activities, information content was developed, such as videos explaining the results of the project, video podcasts with experts in the sector and brochures.
The Circular Buildings project was funded by EEA Grants and promoted by the Smart Waste Portugal Association, in collaboration with 3drivers, FEUP and PTPC.
