Existing built works (buildings and infrastructure) can potentially act as a significant ‘material bank’, providing a rich source of secondary materials and products for construction. There is a need to research new digitally powered techniques and technologies that would rapidly and accurately identify, analyse and record existing construction materials, products and components, facilitating their use in a circular economy and reducing life cycle impacts, including embodied carbon. Proposals should therefore aim to foster selective deconstruction, separation of hazardous materials, sorting, and high-quality recycling. They would thus contribute to the aims of the New European Bauhaus.

Regular maintenance and repair of civil engineering infrastructure extends their service life, which in turn reduces the need for their demolition and replacement, and the related negative economic, environmental and climate impacts. However, it can be difficult and cumbersome to identify and address maintenance or repair needs, especially in locations that are difficult to access such as large or tall structures, deep shafts, or where elements are hidden from view. Intervention for maintenance and repair can also involve unnecessary risks to the health and safety of workers. Proposals should build on, or seek collaboration with, existing projects or solutions, and develop synergies with other relevant European, national or regional initiatives, funding programmes and platforms, such as the New European Bauhaus.
