The construction sector is responsible for over 35% of the EU’s total waste generation, and accounts for about 50% of all extracted resources and an estimated at 5-12% of total GHG emissions. WOODCIRCLES will contribute significantly to decreasing these numbers by developing innovative circular solutions for sustainable wood construction to help reduce Europe’s dependence on non-renewable resources, cut GHG emissions, reduce waste generation, and offer long-term carbon sinks and substitution of fossil-based and carbon intensive products. WOODCIRCLES will combine the considerable innovation power of the expert consortium consisting of key stakeholders from all parts of the value chain to release the full circular and sustainable potential of wood construction. Based on identified needs and market potentials, the consortium will develop new value-added value chains for upcycling of wood waste materials and optimized design-for-disassembly building system solutions to significantly increase recycling rates of wood in construction. An ‘Urban Sawmill’ sorting and production facility capable of turning in-homogenous low value wood construction waste into a standardized homogenous value-added, cost-effective baseline product, will be prototyped. WOODCIRCLES will integrate digital tools and solutionsin all developments and create digital twinsfor the large-scale, real-life demonstrators – the Urban Sawmill and the building system prototypes to demonstrate the benefits of digital technology for circular construction. Active involvement of partner cities and their building ecosystems through technical and thematic co-engagement activities will increase deployment. All developed materials, components and system prototypes will be demonstrated, piloted and fully documented – including sustainability assessment – for immediate market uptake. Based on developments, recommendations for new or updated European harmonised technical specifications and Eurocodes will be provided.

建筑业占欧盟废物产生总量的35%以上，占所有开采资源的50%左右，估计占温室气体排放总量的5-12%。WOODCIRCLES将通过为可持续木结构开发创新的循环解决方案，帮助减少欧洲对不可再生资源的依赖，减少温室气体排放，减少废物产生，并提供长期碳汇和化石和碳密集型产品的替代品，为减少这些数字做出重大贡献。WOODCIRCLES将联合收割机与由价值链各个环节的关键利益相关者组成的专家联盟的巨大创新力量相结合，以释放木结构的全面循环和可持续潜力。根据确定的需求和市场潜力，该联盟将开发新的增值价值链，用于木材废料的升级回收和优化的可拆卸设计建筑系统解决方案，以显着提高建筑中木材的回收率。一个“城市锯木厂”的分拣和生产设施，能够把非同质的低价值木材建筑废物变成一个标准化的同质增值，具有成本效益的基准产品，将原型。WOODCIRCLES将在所有开发项目中集成数字化工具和解决方案，并为大型现实示范项目创建数字孪生模型-城市锯木厂和建筑系统原型，以展示数字技术对循环建筑的好处。伙伴城市的积极参与及其通过技术和专题共同参与活动建设生态系统将增加部署。所有开发的材料、组件和系统原型都将进行演示、试验和完整记录，包括可持续性评估，以便立即投入市场。根据发展，将提供新的或更新的欧洲协调技术规范和欧洲规范的建议。
