Circ-Boost presents the Norwegian Pilot 4 that aims to demonstrate an entire circular building process “from demolition to construction” in the Arctic region of Norway by deploying leading construction technologies and solutions for the region.
The pilot includes several stages, namely, demolition, production of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) and their direct utilization in new construction, that enable different circular solutions developed by the pilot team that includes UiT The Arctic University of Norway, Museum Nord, the non-profit government-supported organization within the Norwegian national museum network, Lundhagem architects, an Oslo-based architectural studio, and Reno-Vest, the primary waste management company in Vesterålen.
