Following may be the possible means to expedite circular practices in building construction industry
On job training:
Urgency of transitioning to circular economy practices is
such that, construction industry can’t really wait for handful of new circular
experts to graduate in coming decades in the business-as-usual case. For 100X
or more increase in skilled manpower in next five years, civil and structural
engineers, architects and draftsman are expected to go through on-job training
and have a hands-on learning experience through trial and error on real
circular building and construction cases, in an experimentative environment, permitted
by client.
Removing bidding barrier:
For 10X to 100X participation, both public and private
clients are expected to reduce the barrier for new entrants in circular
construction business, by allowing firms having no prior demonstrated case of
circular building, showing trust in professional competency of architectural
firms while keeping some extra time cushion for learning curve. This is
possible if client and firm both aspire to adopt and transition to circular
economy practices in their vision. Means to delivering circular projects can
always be worked out by professionals without compromising on integrity of
building structure and aesthetics.
Software patch:
For exponential diffusion and 100X to 1000X adoption of
circular architectural practices the most popular and widespread architectural,
structural and simulation software like AutoCAD, Revit, Sketch Up, Bentley,
3DMax, Lumion etc. may require to give a huge circular patch upgrade to their
software (including software commands and effects, circular element template
and 3D library/ warehouse) and training material/ programme, allowing for
on-job-learning and training. Construction industry can’t simply rely on new
workforce trained (only) on new/ yet to emerge circular architecture/ structure
software for its circular transition.
From junk to vintage:
There is a fine line between what is discarded as junk and
what is embraced as vintage, creative industry, academia and mass media can
always help wider diffusion and faster adoption of harvested material in new
building.
Biomass and bio-based industry working together:
As they compete for same biomass-rich feed/ raw material;
construction industry must work hand in hand with biomass energy players, to
divert biomass for their first usage in construction industry before getting
converted into energy.
