Synthesis of the state-of-the-art and key barriers and opportunities for Materials Passports and Reversible Building Design in the current system

Based on topic specific stateoftheart reports an overview will be given of currently known opportunities and barriers for uptake of Materials Passports and Reversible Building Design within the vested system These stateoftheart reports will investigate the main technical economic financial environmental legal spatial and logistic driverscauses for every known type of actor within the current value chain Focussing on the European context and more specifically the countries involved within the BAMB project the following topics will be investigated by the following partners value chain at building product level EPEA and IBM value chain at building level IBM and VITO availability of information between actors along the value chain with a specific point of concern related to the applicability of building information modelling BIM within the current building practice in EU ie review of BIM standardisation within EU and review of EU and International BIM related systems and plugins related to sustainability BREidentification of commonly used methods to refurbish and maintain buildings for major construction types VUB UTwente and SGDFelaboration on the cause of demolition of buildings and major maintenance needs of buildings VUB UTwente and SGDFestimation of the availability composition amount and quality of CD Waste in the EU VUB UTwente and SGDFestimation of reuse potential of buildings components and materials within the existing buildings stock VUB UTwente and SGDFidentification of existing niche solutionsapplicationsstrategies key actors and barriers to accelerate the reuse of oresidues as material resources not necessarily for building products EPEA ogeneric components applicable for different buildings VUB UTwente and SGDF otransfunctional buildings VUB UTwente and IBMidentification of existing initiatives and regulations impeding or supporting reuse of materials components and buildings Brussels Environment BRE and VITOidentification of existing financial and business models impeding or supporting reuse of resources materials components and buildings IBMAll identified key actors within the vested system will be represented through a network diagram currently characterised by a governing linear value chain and linked to key opportunities and barriers The aim of this network diagram is to visualise possible system failures and gains at a single glance as much as possible supported by facts and figures The definite visualisation will be decided through stakeholder consultationThe synthesis report will be submitted as a written document in PDF form This information will predominantly include a summary of the stateoftheart reports and some testimonies of key actors However the crude stateoftheart reports are not to be understood as part of the final deliverable but these supporting documents can be made available to the European Commission
