The project develops pre and post-demolition digital assessment protocols in order to better inform reclaimed material implementation in new projects; the application of the protocols are demonstrated in a pavilion from reused timber. By facilitating the data capture, analysis, identification, and characterization of available secondary raw materials, and creating database systems for pre- and post-demolition sites, it promotes gains in high quality upcycled materials for new construction projects. Modern reality capture technologies allow for collecting high density and quality Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) data, presenting the opportunity to also increase the reliability and trust in upcycled materials by data specifically structured to relevant actors.
