Abstract
In the current study, how planning and truck-mixer based waste amounts per 1 m(3) fresh ready-mixed concrete (RMC) can be determined was presented. Toward this aim, the formation process of the fresh RMC waste in construction projects was first introduced in a detailed manner, together with an in-depth literature review in this specific domain of the construction engineering and management. Then, the measurement procedure of the waste amount or coefficient of the fresh RMC was revealed and discussed as a practical and creative planning knowledge. Hence, a useful and realistic waste management perspective about the cost and potential environmental savings of the RMC waste was drawn. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
