Project Manager's Guide to Material Reuse Commercial Buildings (July 2024)
- Developed by: Hennepin County, MSR Design, Center for Sustainable Building Research, Doors Unhinged
- Description: "This guide is for owners, architects and contractors looking to integrate circularity into the design, construction and operation of buildings by utilizing reclaimed materials and by implementing deconstruction. A number of guides and reports address the topic of deconstruction, but as an industry we cannot focus exclusively on deconstruction. To close the loop and create a circular economy, owners and architects must include reclaimed materials in new designs."
