Deconstruction involves the disassembly of building components and systems using construction practices so materials are being “created” rather than consumed in the process. Learn about the opportunities, constraints, and procedures for deconstruction and the reuse of building materials. No prior technical experience is needed.
By attending this session, participants will
- Learn the basic steps in planning and implementing a deconstruction project
