This Guideline addresses the reduction of adverse economic, environmental, and social impacts of building construction through the application of principles related to design for disassembly and adaptability (DfD/A). DfD/A can be used to identify design approaches and potential waste-reduction solutions, to develop system-specific disassembly- and adaptability-conscious details, and to adopt specific strategies for building structure or parts thereof (e.g., the envelope). It applies only to buildings (which can be of any type, including commercial, industrial, institutional, and residential).
