The environmental benefits of reusing waste stream materials include the reduced risks to soil, water and ecology by avoidance of disposal to land of hazardous wastes. The elimination of cement from precast concrete products (at an embodied rate of 930 kg of CO2 per tonne of cement) will provide considerable carbon savings to both the UK and Malaysian construction industries. The project aims to manifest the sustainability “Proximity Principle” of having the waste stream consumed within the same close geographic area. A Life Cycle Analysis of the new process will be carried out to deliver an unbiased environmental assessment of the proposed cementless dwelling. The social benefits include developing improved building typologies for people living in urban and rural deprived areas. The demonstration dwelling will offer an alternative system of housing provision that mainstreams support networks and community building. Sustainable consumption is achieved through the use of local, recycled materials and socially inclusive and empowering construction techniques. This mechanism will reshape socio-technical infrastructures of housing provision which will align affordability, access and sustainability priorities consistent with UK Official Development Assistance. Social benefits will also include the creation/protection of specialist jobs that will increase new skills and innovation.
