50 NUANCES OF MINERALS: Tim LAMBRECHTS, Doctoral Candidate at Eindhoven University of Technology, will talk about the ReCreate Project

Thijs LAMBRECHTS is a doctoral candidate at Eindhoven University of Technology, holding a degree in civil engineering. He is involved in the ReCreate project, which investigates the reuse of precast concrete elements.

His doctoral research focuses on connections, methods for dismantling buildings, and reconnecting harvested elements. He is currently developing demountable connections for reused precast concrete elements. His presentation will showcase the ongoing work within the ReCreate project, where various aspects of reusing precast concrete elements are being explored. This includes assessing whether a building can be dismantled to recover its materials, dismantling methods, and quality checks on the recovered elements. Additionally, the research addresses designing with these elements, the environmental benefits, and the economic aspects of the process. The entire process will be discussed, including its impact on labour and the influence of legislation.
