2 Halving waste to Landfill  Launched in 2008  Currently over 800 Signatory's  Influenced £42bn construction projects  Over 4mt diversion from landfill through WRAP procurement requirements over 2008-11

3  Tools to quantify waste reduction and cost savings Outline design Focus Waste prevention Reusing materials Detailed design Focus Reduce wastage Increase recycled content Construction Focus Achieve target wastage Waste recovery Measure performance Completion Focus Consistent performance benchmarking Designing out Waste Tools and Guides Net Waste Tool Site Waste Management Plan Template Reporting Portal

4 WASTEWATERCARBON

5  WRAP’s three-step approach to designing out waste 1.Facilitated workshop 2.Cost, waste and carbon analysis 3.Selection of:  Pre-engineered classroom pods  Precast concrete columns  SUDS Designing out waste: Southgate College Total Project saving Waste savingsEmbodied carbon savings £116,254617 tonnes85 tonnes

6  Review of design details and construction materials  Identification of product options with higher RC and specified within ITT  30% increase in RC achieved as % of total value of materials at no extra cost Recycled Content: Redhill CE Primary School Recycled content %Material 100%Damp proof membrane, Carpet, Sheathing boards, Timber frame insulation, Roof insulation 50% to 80% rangeConcrete block work, Cavity wall insulation, Plasterboard linings, Rubber sheet flooring

7 To identify opportunities and facilitate implementation of resource efficiency improvements in construction refurbishment Overall aim for 2013

8 Resource Efficiency Action Plans (REAPs)  Support for existing plans – progress and delivery  Developing new plans  Bricks  Precast Concrete  Composites
