    This seminar discusses the life cycle of buildings and materials, exploring some of the feasibility and reasons for reuse of existing building stock and/or their materials. Adaptive and non-adaptive reuse scenarios will be touched on, along with architectural salvage and appropriate material reclamation. Potential health and safety issues will be addressed, which sets the stage to continue the discussion in Re-Solution Part II: Sustainable Solutions and Hygrothermal Principles for Existing Buildings. The language of carbon is ever-present in environmental product declarations (EPD) and their lifecycle assessments ( LCA), and even some material disclosure platforms. We aim to define its relationship to existing and new buildings with a holistic view.
