Circular Construction for Urban Development translates circular economy principles into practical knowledge for the building industry, assembling perspectives from 20 co-authors and multiple organisations into a structured framework for developers and practitioners.
About This Book
Circular construction is reshaping how the building industry approaches material flows, building lifecycles, and urban development at scale — yet the knowledge required to apply it remains scattered across disciplines. This publication consolidates that knowledge into a single, coherent resource, co-produced by 20 experts and structured across five thematic chapters. Its architecture mirrors its argument: modular, collaborative, and assembled from specialist contributions. Aimed squarely at developers, architects, and industry actors seeking to embed circular construction principles into real projects, it moves beyond theory to deliver tools and frameworks with direct application to urban development practice.
