A model for estimating construction waste generation index for building
A model for quantifying waste generation per gross floor area (WGA) is presented. The model is applied to a newly constructed residential building project in China. The WGA of this project is 40.7 kg/m 2, and concrete is the largest contributor. Comparisons with the existing data reveal that the model is valid and practical.
