Below-ground construction products and materials, such as foundations, piling systems, and utility infrastructure (e.g., pipes and tubes) are essential to most structural projects. These elements are typically composed of high-volume, resource-intensive materials like concrete, steel, and polymers. While their durability and integrity is paramount, their potential for reuse can be overlooked. There is a huge opportunity to reduce material waste, decrease embodied carbon, and drive more circular construction practices.
We’ll hear from experts who are already implementing below-ground reuse and explore the lessons learned from their case studies and experience. Additionally, there will be a Q&A session where you’ll have the opportunity to ask them questions about below-ground reuse.
