Accompanying measure for Dissemination, Valorisation and Collaborative Exploitation of circularity of constructional steel products

The project ADVANCE (Accompanying measure for Dissemination, Valorisation and Collaborative Exploitation of circularity of constructional steel products) aims at valorisation and dissemination of the achievements of project addressing sustainable use of steel products in buildings such as PROGRESS (Provisions for Greater Reuse of Steel Structures), SB-STEEL and LVS3 in order to support fast and efficient implementation of the Circular Economy of constructional steel. The proposed project will provide specific technical guidance and recommendations for reuse of existing and future steelwork (European recommendations for reuse of steel products) in 7 languages, informative brochure in 9-12 languages, online & mobile tool for the evaluation of the environmental benefits of reuse, and a series of 7 dedicated workshops/seminars around the Europe. 11 organisations will be participating in the project implementation (2 research institutes, 4 industrial associations, demolition contractor and 4 universities). All of the following target groups from 'Circular Economy Principles for Buildings Design' will benefit from the project results and will be addressed: (1) Building users, facility managers and owners, (2) Design teams (engineering & architecture of buildings), (3) Contractors and builders, (4) Manufacturers of construction products, (5) Deconstruction and demolition teams, (6) Investors, developers and insurance providers, (7) Government / Regulators / Local authorities.
