2. Introduction
Construction and demolition waste management involves the efficient handling and
disposal of materials generated during building projects. This includes practices such as
recycling, reusing, and proper disposal of waste to minimize environmental impact.
Effective management strategies help reduce landfill usage and conserve resources.
Regulations and guidelines often govern how construction and demolition waste should
be managed to promote sustainability and safety. Implementing best practices can lead
to cost savings and improved environmental outcomes.
Embracing innovative technologies and practices can further enhance efficiency and
minimize negative consequences. Ultimately, prioritizing C&D waste management
supports the goal of creating cleaner, healthier communities and preserving natural
resources for future generations.
3. Overview C&D Waste:
Waste comprising of building materials, debris and rubble resulting from construction, re-
modeling, repair and demolition of any civil structure.
Examples of some C&D waste are:
Soil / Sand / Gravel waste
Steel & Other Metal Waste
Concrete
Brick & Masonry waste
Plastic waste
Chemical / Hazardous waste
Cement waste
Wood waste

WASTE GENERATION AS PER MATERIAL
4. Why Waste Management?
According to Vikaspedia, 350 million tones of C&D
waste is generated annually in India.
Legal Responsibility.
Impact on Sustainability.
Impact on Budget.
Effects on Health, Safety and Environment.
Shortage of Landfill & Hazardous Waste Capacity.
It is a Basic Good Management.
In India, construction and demolition waste
management is governed by the Construction
and Demolition Waste Management Rules,
2016. These rules mandate proper
segregation, transportation, and disposal of
waste generated from construction and
demolition activities. Violators may face
penalties, including fines and imprisonment,
for non-compliance with the regulations.
5. Benefits:
Landfill disposal can be minimized.
Less impact on Environment and human health.
Reduces air, water and land pollution.
Waste handling cost can be reduced.
Improves in environment sustainability.
Avoiding penalties and fines from authorities.
7. Site Waste Management Plan for VIT-Campus:
1. Segregate the waste material at source.
2. Collect the segregated wastes at designated
waste collection locations / waste skips.
3. Any material which can be reused at site,
must be separated and stored properly.
4. Recycle materials like concrete, block and
sand waste at site only for reuse.
5. Send materials to recovery plants to recycle
the waste for new products.
6. Only send materials to landfill which can
not be recycled.
8. Conclusion
Effective construction and demolition waste management is essential for environmental
sustainability and resource conservation.
Implementing proper sorting, recycling, and disposal techniques can minimize landfill
usage and reduce the impact on ecosystems.
Collaboration among stakeholders, including contractors, government agencies, and
recycling facilities, is crucial for successful waste management practices.
Embracing innovative technologies and sustainable building practices can further
enhance efficiency and reduce waste generation.
Ultimately, prioritizing waste management in construction and demolition projects can
contribute to a more sustainable future for communities and the planet.
9. Thank You For Your Time!
Play your role in minimizing waste generation.
A small initiative at individual level will impact in a
big way collectively.
