Hajjar & Webster Design for Deconstruction
Categories :
What if aging buildings could be dismantled and their components reused? Jerry Hajjar, Northeastern University, and Mark Webster, Simpson Gumpertz & Heger, have received a $250,000 research grant from the National Science Foundation to study design for deconstruction. Using structural clamps to attach precast plank to steel girders is one of the concepts to be evaluated. Read more about their work on the news@Northeastern web publication. http://www.northeastern.edu/news/2012/05/design-for-deconstruction-building-sustainability-into-our-buildings/
