Guide des matériaux récupérables pour le plex et la maison unifamiliale (Guide to reusable materials for plexes and single-family homes)

The intern will conduct an analysis of carbon and costs associated with different end of life scenarios for two common housing typologies, a single family house and a plex. This data for the different scenarios will be compiled into a diagram to help industry stakeholders easily understand the impact of different circular operations. The partner organization will include the diagram and use the analysis to propose different recommendations for contractors trying to implement circular operations when working in these two typologies. The results will be published in a guide the partner organization is creating to understand which materials have the potential to be recuperated and reused in single family houses and plexes, as well as their environmental and economic viability.
