Optimization Methodology for the Use of Plasterboard and Steel Profiles in a Housing Project
Journal: Journal of Building Technology DOI: 10.32629/jbt.v6i2.2842
Abstract
At present, the construction industry generates the most waste in the world, accounting for about 35% of solid waste, and Chile has a similar proportion. For every square meter of construction, 0.26 m3 of waste are generated, approximately during the construction phase. This study analyzed the San Andrés del Valle expansion building project of Aitue, a construction company located in Concepcion, Bio Region, Chile. We are seeking to develop a proposal to minimize material loss, particularly for the two most commonly used elements in building construction, such as cardboard plasterboard sheets and Metalcon profiles. In this way, the above materials can be optimized to reduce waste and achieve cleaner work. In addition, an economic analysis was conducted on the savings generated by on-site optimization of the studied materials.
