ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on the development of a fully recyclable modular system in massive construction for housing. In comparison to common masonry walls, the new method enables the units to become fully reused in new walls. Important findings are methods for assembling walls, slabs and technical equipment as well as the possibility to disassemble mounted structural elements in case of reaching their lifetime by preserving the original units for utilization in a new construction. One of the greatest economic, social and ecological challenges of time is to ensure an efficient consumption of natural resources in order to preserve the natural environment. This aim is increasingly gaining prominence on the national and international political agendas. Efforts in Europe have led to the drawing up in 2011 of a Road Map for a "Resource Efficient Europe". One important aspect of resource efficiency is to expand the opportunities for the recycling of materials.
