Design for Disassembly: Case Study Home Opening

Project partners include the Hamer Center, the Community Housing Resource Center, and the Environmental Protection Agency
Construction and demolition waste accounts for nearly a third of all waste generated in the United States. This case study home near downtown Atlanta creates new construction while planning for adaptability and disassembly at the onset. Using standard construction components, the home features re-positionable walls and a renovation-ready structure. For more information, please visit:
