TECHNOLOGY: CAST REINFORCED CONCRETE

OBSERVATIONS:

• бетонні смітники не проглядаються, тож легко можуть містити небезпечні предмети; • важкі та вандалостійкі; • поширений нині дизайн не створює умов для сортування за фракціями; • на бетоні легко лишається бруд; його важко мити й тримати в чистоті; • бетон вбирає вологу та запахи від сміття; • конструкція часто вимагає використання одноразового пластикового пакета; • монолітні об’єкти; у випадку зношування чи руйнування їх потрібно повністю змінювати.

REMANUFACTURE

potential decrease in amount of concrete or its replacement with other materials

hard to maintain clean: solid structures have to be fully replaced with deterioration or destruction

easy to relocate and reuse while preserving the integrity

solid reinforced design makes them unviable to renovate.

potential use of shatters as fillers in concrete mixtures or other construction materials (with proper adjustment of the process) due to their huge weight, additional fixtures are rarely needed

easy to relocate with nonspecialised transport, yet the structure is hefty

can be stored at ambient temperature, yet the weight and the variety of shapes complicate the space-effective storage

• Decrease the amount of material to a bear minimum needed for functional use. • Opt for the more eco-friendly grades of with higher strength and durability and lower carbon footprint (embodied CO2). • Replace concrete with other materials that have a lesser carbon footprint. • Using modular concrete structures would facilitate maintenance, namely repair and replacement of individual parts. • Design insert elements for concrete litter bins, in order to facilitate maintenance, decrease soiling on the main object, and prolong its working lifespan.
