Abstract
The analysis of the environmental standards that the company Arquitectura y Concreto
S.A.S. It was of great importance due to the different shortcomings that had been occurring in the Cerros de los Alpes and Casteló Natura projects, focusing on the optimization of the environmental management system to take advantage of construction and demolition waste, reducing the amount generated and with it also the quantity of materials demanded for the construction processes, which the on-site reuse applies.
Initially, the general information of the company was determined as the economic activity, in this case construction of multi-family projects, apartment towers. Subsequently, environmental inspections were carried out on the two projects, identifying the most relevant environmental aspects and impacts. Although the location of the projects and their environment are totally different, one in the eastern hills, Usaquén and the other in the town of Kennedy, their most important impact is the production of construction and demolition waste, in addition to their mixing in the disposition which generated economic losses for the company.
As an improvement plan to mitigate the generation of solid waste, a training program on good environmental practices focused on the separation and recovery of waste was implemented, carrying out the reuse of waste on-site, thus reducing the generation of waste and the consumption of materials on site and also the amount of waste that can be recycled such as cardboard, scrap metal and plastic increased reflecting profits for each of the projects from the sale of recycled material.
Finally, the optimization of environmental standards met the objectives, mitigating the critical impacts that were had in each project and also complying with resolution 1115 of 2012, which legislates the technical guidelines for the on-site use of construction and demolition waste in the city of Bogotá, during the period.
