Some aspects of the process were fixed, such as the quantity of welding stations and the routing of specific truss types (e.g.

This is particularly important in the superstructure, where traditionally the easiest method of deconstructing is to crush the building..The use of bolted connections on steelwork joints is safer as hot trades such as welding are omitted.

The connections are also quick and easy for less well skilled labour..The joints can be unbolted at the end of the building’s life, potentially with the use of temporary propping.It is important that the method statement is considered at design stage so that the assembly and disassembly method are developed concurrently (planning ahead for reuse)..

The disassembly should encourage components to be removed in their entirety.A high-quality component has more value than its individual parts.

Not only can it be reused in its component form but it can be disassembled further in a local offsite facility, reducing on-site pollution.

This provides additional opportunities for reusing materials.. Use technology for green buildings.I used standard factors to adjust the capital cost in a no.

halving the scale does not half the cost or time for each unit to be deployed; the capital per unit volume actually increases..Lining up scale with demand.

Finally, I changed the conversion costs for each scale based upon rules of thumb factors.. M. ore batches.more operator interventions, more laboratory tests.
