| Abstract |
Consistent recycling of available resources is one of the major challenges for construction in the future. This article contributes to the discussion and further development of recyclability in the construction industry. A model is presented that goes beyond the mere consideration of building materials and describes the overall recyclability of existing or new building structures. In this way, aspects of joining and separability of the individual building materials as well as erection and dismantling processes come to the fore. During the development of the model, care was taken to ensure that its structure is compatible with existing classifications and categories and is linked to existing frameworks and methods. In the medium term, the model provides a basis for a holistic development and discussion of closed-loop recycling in the construction industry and is intended to make a long-term contribution to the development of a verification procedure for mapping the sustainable use of natural resources. |
