Abstract
This case study is one in a series developed by the Illinois Sustainable Technology Center. This pilot project was a 6000 square foot four-unit townhome in Normal, IL. The project generated 24.44 tons of waste. Two 20 CY boxes of wood (6 tons) and one 20 CY box of cardboard (.62 tons) were recycled. The wall sections were panelized, which reduced wood waste. 27% of the project's waste was diverted from the landfill.
