Abstract
As the roofing industry moves toward more sustainable practices, dealing with construction waste is becoming more than placing discarded materials in a bin to be hauled off to a landfill. Regulatory agencies, building owners and designers are requiring minimization of new construction waste along with recycling demolition waste. Many times, this requires contractors to develop a construction and demolition waste management plan.
