Implementing Material Resource Efficiency practices and Logistics

1. Implementing Material Resource Efficiency practices and Logistics • MRE Guide • Material Logistics Plans • Reverse Logistics Malcolm Waddell Construction Project Manager

2. MRE Guide for Regeneration and Major Project Support

3. Regeneration Linking the demolition and new-build stages to maximise resource efficiency. WRAP regeneration guide Brings together: ICE Demolition Protocol Using reclaimed materials Good practice site waste management Increasing recycled content

4. Current Projects • England • Moss Side, Manchester • Loam Pit Vale, Lewisham • Scotland • Bishopsbriggs, Glasgow • Raploch, Stirling • Clyde Gateway • Dumfries and Galloway

5. Ongoing Work • Major Project Support • Work is being contracted. • Further five projects • Varied size and sector across England and Wales • Client and Contractor Campaign Support

6. Material Logistics Plans

7. Material Logistics Plans A tool to manage all materials from project conception through to demobilisation and completion. Key aspects: Setting objectives and KPIs for efficient material use Minimisation of materials through attention to specifications, delivery & storage, handling & use, disposal Identifying lessons learnt and best practice.

12. A cross section • Any type of project • Housing - commercial - retail - public - schools - transport - infrastructure • Any size of project • £ 16 billion - £600k • Any location • City centre - urban - rural

13. How can material logistics help? • Efficient construction • Reduced transport and associated CO2 • Reduced productivity loss • Improved health & safety • Reduced damaged by: • Weather • Bad storage conditions • Unnecessary movements • Poor handling

14. Strategies • Just-in-time • On site logistics specialists • Construction consolidation centres • Off-site manufacture • 4th party logistics • On-site marketplaces • IT solutions

15. Traditional transport to site • Many separate deliveries • Un-coordinated arrivals • Risk of congestion on site and at gates • Many half empty lorries or … • Consignments too large • High stock levels on site • Empty return journeys • High traffic flow - high CO2 Site

16. Construction Consolidation Centres CCC • Contractors deliver to CCC • Mixed loads from CCC • Daily deliveries - JIT • Logistics operator runs the CCC • Transport to site • On site handling • Waste removed on return journeys • Bulked up, compacted etc at the CCC Site Concrete, steelwork, very large items, and full vehicle loads when required, go directly to site

17. Off site manufacturing OSM • Controlled manufacturing environment • Standardisation • Consistent quality • Shorter time on site • Design freeze • Packaging • Transport and Travel • Reduced cost and risk

18. WRAP case studies • Specific case studies examples developed by WRAP looking at: • Volumetric methods – CAD CAM software helps reduce waste <0.6% • Pre-fabrication: Pods – post production waste <1% • Pre-cast concrete – Bison have reduced waste to landfill <1% using their system • Timber frame - <2% waste sent to landfill • Light Steel Frame – materials requirements down 5% and wastage reduced from 12% to <1%

19. Material Logistics Plan • SECTION 1 RESPONSIBLE PERSONS, TRAINING AND COMMUNICATION • SECTION 2 TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS PLAN • SECTION 3 MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS • SECTION 4 MATERIALS RECEIPT, STORAGE AND MANAGEMENT • SECTION 5 MANAGEMENT OF SUB-CONTRACTORS • SECTION 6 SITE MOBILISATION AND CONSTRUCTION • SECTION 7 PROJECT DEMOBILISATION AND COMPLETION • SECTION 8 REVIEW

20. Implementation of MLP Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Engage with contractors Engage with contractors Pilot project using WRAP template Internal review Adapt and make part of co procedures Programme for co-wide rollout Continuous review of KPI and procedures Monitor performance, SWMP data Build own database of KPIs

21. Reverse LogisticsWAS620 Efficient use of vehicles visiting site – promoting better waste management

22. The reverse logistics concept Materials arrive on site in delivery vehicles, are dropped off, and the vehicle leaves empty A logistics operation that seeks to avoid the empty journeys, and promote the take-back of un-used and wasted materials could have a range of environmental benefits Waste vehicles arrive on site empty and leave full with waste

23. The concept • Take-back schemes are becoming more common offerings to UK construction sites • There is a real opportunity here to: • Promote the take-back of unused / waste product and packaging by delivery vehicles • Reduce vehicle movements and mileages associated with material supply and waste management • Reduce the environmental impact of construction

24. The Reverse Logistics Model • Excel based model compares current against potential • The model reports the results in terms of: • The proportions of waste, recyclate and back-hauled material • The costs of material purchase, waste management and back-hauling • The number of miles travelled for delivery and waste travelled • The associated carbon footprint
