ZeroWIN Case Studies
• CS4 & CS7 Remade SE & Wilding Butler• CS6 Bauserve• CS5 & CS8 CEIFA
• Working with other ZeroWIN partners to conduct research• Questions arising from the initial work carried out• Stakeholder input required to decide way forward
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 3
IntroductionAim of the Case StudiesCase studies 4, 5, 6 new buildings• Creation of stakeholders’ networks (producers of materials and components,
owners or promoters, architects, contractors, waste management and energy experts) that allow the research team to monitor a sustainable construction project from the planning phase through to completion.
Case studies 7 and 8 demolition• Research and development needed to assist businesses to correctly plan a
demolition / construction project• Large volumes of potentially recyclable and re-usable materials being disposed of
to landfill • Direct monitoring by the research team to provide information about waste types
and volumes, logistics, available end markets and demolition protocols.
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 4
Workshop discussion
• Progress achieved – case studies started• Challenges arising through the project• Baseline scenario – how best to collect data?• Main environmental impacts (CO2, waste, water)• What opportunities for industrial symbiosis?• Use of information on site – practical implementation of
theoretical studies from WP3
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 5
Fit with the ZeroWIN Vision
WP6 is the core of the ZeroWIN project:Targets • 30% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions• 70% overall re-use and recycling of waste• 75% reduction of fresh water use• Preparatory work will enable the nine industrial case studies
that form WP6• Aims to test the new production model under real-life
conditions• Approaches can meet at least two of the targets above
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 6
Vision ideas from 06.07.10
• Producer responsibility• What is waste prevention• Generate economies of scale through
networks• Competing demands for raw materials• Changes in types of materials in manufacture
affects end markets• Corporate social responsibility – source of
supply
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 7
Vision ideas from 06.07.10
• Some material streams are transient e.g. CRTs• Challenge old ways of thinking• Where is the transformational shift?• Are social networks of greater relevance in
vision?• Engage with more practitioners form other EU
countries• Enable business to get more involved –
language?

Monitoring of water, energy and waste
• Both energy and water use will be measured on site via meters from a local supplier.
• Wilding Butler partner with a recycling/waste disposal company who will provide data
• All suppliers and sub contractors will provide data for their works• Wilding Butler will endeavour where possible to engage local suppliers
within a given radius to minimise energy use.• Wilding Butler will endeavour to negotiate a ‘take back’ scheme with local
suppliers who, if surplus material is left after completion of each item will reuse/sell on to other contractors therefore reducing waste costs.
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 11
Progress to date
• Site clearance completed• Foundations completed• Ground slab completed• Concrete frame ongoing
• Data collected so far;Fuel used by temporary generatorElectricity used for temporary site offices and welfare facilitiesWater used, metered at site boundaryWaste generated from current site operations

Case Study 5 – CEIFA Goals
• Build stakeholders networks involved in a construction project and identify with them their perception of suitable best practices
• Identify in the construction site the processes suitable for intervention (great impacts and possibility to improvements), in order to promote industrial symbiosis environmental gains consistent with the call targetsFor that it is necessary to establish a baseline scenario
• Identify economic opportunities and barriers to cooperative working within zero-win strategies
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 22
Case Study 5 – CEIFAEnvironmental Impacts and Baseline Scenario
• Building indicators for waste production, energy and water consumption (contacts with construction companies), in order to establish a proper baseline scenario according to the methodology defined (case specific baseline scenario)
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 23
Case Study 8 – CEIFA Goals
• Provide information on how the role of the planning phase for the reduction of environmental impacts of demolition
• Study the relative opportunities and barriers for reduction, reuse and recycling of secondary materials
• Highlight best practices and identify areas where improvements can be made
• Identify, in the selected site, the processes suitable for intervention (great impacts and possibility for improvements), in order to promote industrial symbiosis environmental gains consistent with the call targets. For that it is necessary to establish a baseline scenario
Partners Meeting ZeroWINSouthampton, July 2010Page 24
Case Study 8 – CEIFAProgress Achieved
