text-lg leading-relaxed"><p>Facing the increasing concerns about the negative environmental impacts of buildings, governments and general society worldwide have been seeking more efficient and sustainable constructions. Hence, the Circular Economy (CE) emerged as a new paradigm of innovative practice with potential application to the construction industry besides other economic sectors. Following the European Circular Economy Action Plan (ECEAP), multiple efforts have been made to apply circular thinking to construction practices and include resource circularity into sustainability frameworks, such as Level(s).</p><p>However, despite the endeavours, there is still a lack of a standard tool that fully implements the circularity potential, classifies buildings accordingly, and assesses the realisation level of the ECEAP. Thus, the CircularB Action aims to develop a common international framework of a circularity rating tool with Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) based on current best practices of CE construction, state-of-the-art and ECEAP.</p><p>The tool’s framework will allow local application and adaptation by different COST countries and regions. By developing a benchmark database – based on each country/region conditions, culture and traditions – the direct use of the tool is enabled, supporting both designers in developing more sustainable buildings and national/local governments in assessing and promoting their CE targets. Furthermore, construction, assembly, adaptability, deconstruction and business model guidelines will be identified for new and existing buildings to enhance CE in buildings and promote stakeholder knowledge. The rating tool will also be integrated into the Open BIM workflow for better-informed design decisions, automated assessment, efficient value chain management, and circular feedback using central BIM models.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-b60416b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent" data-id="b60416b" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"background_background":"classic"}"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-c3621e7 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent" data-id="c3621e7" data-element_type="container"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-a50e1ca elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="a50e1ca" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h6 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">about the action</h6> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-ed7f411 elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="ed7f411" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h2 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">Aims & Objectives</h2> </div> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-12acc63 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent" data-id="12acc63" data-element_type="container"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-ddb26da elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="ddb26da" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h4 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">Research Coordination </h4> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-493eede elementor-icon-list--layout-traditional elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list" data-id="493eede" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="icon-list.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <ul class="elementor-icon-list-items"> <li class="elementor-icon-list-item"> <span class="elementor-icon-list-icon"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="fad fa-check-circle"></i> </span> <span class="elementor-icon-list-text">Coordination of current policies and identification of those which can act as opportunities/barriers to CE implementation in the construction and real estate industry.</span> </li> <li class="elementor-icon-list-item"> <span class="elementor-icon-list-icon"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="fad fa-check-circle"></i> </span> <span class="elementor-icon-list-text">Data collection about construction techniques, novel solutions and innovative materials applied on new projects, as well as rehabilitation, adaptive reuse methods, components mining and recovery from existing assets.</span> </li> <li class="elementor-icon-list-item"> <span class="elementor-icon-list-icon"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="fad fa-check-circle"></i> </span> <span class="elementor-icon-list-text">Development of a common understanding of how CE principles, as well as the circularity as a characteristic of materials, components and buildings, can be translated into feasible actions and strategies for new and existing buildings.
