Waste Construction Management in Social Housing Projects
The construction and demolition waste in many ways impact the environment: They pollute the soil, the water, and the air. They change the landscape among other degradations of the ecosystem. Chile generates over five and a half million tons of construction and demolition waste a year. This figure represents about 10% and 30% of the total urban country waste. Although in Chile there isn´t an appropriate normative or law to regulate this type of waste to lead to a right arrangement in terms of waste. This study presents an arrangement plan of construction and demolition waste to build Social Housing based on the constructive chasing of social housing done in Santiago, Chile. To do that, the main constructive waste generated were first identified, then the registry of quantity about the typology of material, also the national normative of management and the possible alternative of waste management based on the valuation of reusing, recycling and energetic valuation. The waste management plan looks for recovering the economic value and the usefulness that those wastes could have of which waste might shock negatively on our environment. The study gives advice, responsibility, and actions that should be taken by the different constructive actors. On the other hand, the environmental and the economic impact are determined to the respective constructive enterprise. It also hands over the present normative of construction to implement this plan
