Building durability & maintainability
Disassembly / end-of-life potential
Solutions
Mechanically fastened, non-glued assemblies
: Bolted/screwed rather than adhesive-bonded construction, so components can be separated at end of life.
Sacrificial / replaceable wear components
: Designing the cheapest, most exposed part (sill boards, splash boards at grade) to be the one that wears and gets replaced, rather than the structure behind it.
