Construction waste management : case studies YIT Russia : overview of construction waste management at YIT construction sites and suggestions for further development
The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to understand how construction waste is handled and what can be improved in the cases of Russian construction sites. Additionally, this paper proposes new ideas for construction waste development and ways of tracking the progress. Before the qualitative case study, background information on the construction waste was researched, development directions for on-site waste management and design stage strategies were overviewed. The case study included three construction site observations, waste reports analysis and other sources of information. Various technological processes were observed as waste origin points. The findings are documented and taken in account with the attempt to combine different criteria from on-site waste management and waste management at the design level. The studied construction sites proved to be well-organized and with the use of BIM, the company has already started practicing waste avoidance. Although no waste sorting is done at the sites, apart from metal materials separation, there is a good ground for further advancements. The results include an evaluation of the studied construction projects through positive and negative criteria observed. Based on the findings and the gathered theoretical background, development directions were proposed. In addition, author’s own ideas on development and progress tracking were suggested. All suggestions require further research for proper implementation, creating room for discussion.
