Guidelines for building construction in the face of sustainable development and resource conservation

The present work stems from the necessity to single out, in the face of "sustainable development", the guidelines able to manage the complexity of the problems related to the rescue of building materials in the construction phase of the building process. Two possible cases can be distinguished: a) planning for rescue of an existing building; b) design of a new building. The use of secondary materials from construction and demolition wastes, residues from production process which can be used as raw materials in other production processes of the same or other natura, to realize products and building components involves the introduction, at the construction stage, of a series of actions addressed to allow their possible and real employment in the building process.
