Abstract
AbstractConstruction is one of the key parameters for social and economic growth for any nation, but it is also named as one of the major wastes generating process. However, it has sufficient potential to minimize or reduce any waste generation. Advance planning and monitoring start from the project till the end of construction can reduce waste generation up to a large extent. “Zero waste” is one of the most visionary approaches to overcome waste problems. In this research, the zero-waste approach is correlated for building construction work to assess the practical applications on a design and process throughout the life cycle. A state of zero waste can be reached by holistically implementing the revolutionary concept of prefabrication, demonstrability, circular economy, green rating tools and the principle of reducing, reuse and recycle. Further practices like smart waste audit, smart waste collection, high-value mixed waste processing, and the collaborative platform further help towards the prime target of zero waste construction.KeywordsSustainabilityZero-waste designingLife cycle assessment
