The Construction and Demolition Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 2014
15
(c) Two times in a year for town or cities having population between one and ten lakhs.
c) Noise monitoring
Noise is the main pollutants from a processing facility. In case of wet process, some quantity of effluent
may be generated which has to be treated and discharged as per relevant norms – as per Environment
(Protection) Rules, 1986, Schedule VI. For noise levels, the noise standards recommended by CPCB
and notified in the Environment (Protection) Rules, 1986 for industrial area shall be applicable (day
time 75 and night time 70 dB ALeq). The measurement would be done at the interface of the facility
with the surrounding area, i.e., at plant boundary.
d) Plantation at Processing/Recycling and Landfill Sites
24. A vegetative boundary should be made around the Processing/Recycling plant/site to create buffer
zone and cover shall be provided over the completed construction and storage land fill site in
accordance with the following specifications, namely:

(c) Selected plants shall have ability to thrive on low-nutrient soil with minimum nutrient
addition;
(d) Plantation to be made in sufficient density to minimize soil erosion.
Closure of Landfill Site and Post-care
25. The post closure care of landfill site shall be conducted for at least fifteen years and long term
monitoring or care plan shall be made.
26. Use of closed landfill sites after fifteen years of post-closure monitoring can be considered for
human settlement or otherwise only after ensuring that gaseous and water analyses comply with the
specified standards.
Special provisions for hilly areas
27. Cities and towns located on hills shall have location-specific methods evolved for final disposal of
construction and demolition wastes by the municipal authority with the approval of the concerned
State Board or the Committee. The municipal authority shall set up processing facilities for
utilization of deconstruction, Construction and Demolition (C&D) wastes. The inert waste shall be
used for building roads or filling-up of appropriate areas on hills. Because of constraints in finding
adequate land in hilly areas, wastes not suitable for road-laying or filling up shall be disposed of in
specially designed landfills.
The Construction and Demolition Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 2014
16
Schedule V: Standards and Specifications
Construction and Demolition waste (C&D) waste including deconstruction as stored and collected at
present, is mostly in mixed form. Therefore, the proposed standards should address mixed aggregates or
recycled aggregates (RA), which is distinct from recycled concrete aggregates (RCA).
Proposed standards for recycled aggregates:
I.
Recycled aggregate (RA) may be used in making concrete for non-structural purposes. The extent
of use would be limited to non-load bearing structures only provided the conditions mentioned
below at point no. 2 is complied with. Examples of use – wall between two RCC load bearing
members, filling walls between RCC frame, non-industrial flooring, etc.
II.
The RA should be free from deleterious material, such as, organic content, vegetable matter, coal,
clay lumps, external substances such as, soft fragments like pieces of plastics, paper etc. RA should
also be free from chemicals, known to be detrimental for the strength or durability of concrete or
steel reinforcement, such as, chlorides, etc. beyond the threshold value.
III.
Percentage of replacement by RA can be upto 20% for any type of concreting work. The percentage
can be increased up to 30% for road sub-base / base / other road related applications except wearing
course. However, this should be backed up by laboratory test reports.
IV.
RA of appropriate quality (as mentioned above) can be used for various purposes, such as, in
making kerb stones, paving blocks, concrete blocks and bricks, road sub-base, ready mix concrete
(RMC), pathways for pedestrian use, rural roads (used for walking and bicycles) etc. However, it
has to be ensured that the existing norms for strength (such as, M20, M25 etc.) are complied with
for desired application.
V.
Fine washed aggregates in the range of 4.75 mm to 0.075 mm (75 µ) separated from C&D waste
using ‘wet’ process may be used as ‘manufactured sand’ for non-load bearing structures.
VI.
Recycled concrete aggregates have to be pre-wetted before use to avoid rapid slump loss due to its
high water absorption rate. Admixtures with better slump retention effect would be useful.

State Board or the Committee. The municipal authority shall set up processing facilities for
utilization of deconstruction, Construction and Demolition (C&D) wastes. The inert waste shall be
used for building roads or filling-up of appropriate areas on hills. Because of constraints in finding
adequate land in hilly areas, wastes not suitable for road-laying or filling up shall be disposed of in
specially designed landfills.
The Construction and Demolition Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 2014
16
Schedule V: Standards and Specifications
Construction and Demolition waste (C&D) waste including deconstruction as stored and collected at
present, is mostly in mixed form. Therefore, the proposed standards should address mixed aggregates or
recycled aggregates (RA), which is distinct from recycled concrete aggregates (RCA).
Proposed standards for recycled aggregates:
I.
Recycled aggregate (RA) may be used in making concrete for non-structural purposes. The extent
of use would be limited to non-load bearing structures only provided the conditions mentioned
below at point no. 2 is complied with. Examples of use – wall between two RCC load bearing
members, filling walls between RCC frame, non-industrial flooring, etc.
II.
The RA should be free from deleterious material, such as, organic content, vegetable matter, coal,
clay lumps, external substances such as, soft fragments like pieces of plastics, paper etc. RA should
also be free from chemicals, known to be detrimental for the strength or durability of concrete or
steel reinforcement, such as, chlorides, etc. beyond the threshold value.
III.
Percentage of replacement by RA can be upto 20% for any type of concreting work. The percentage
can be increased up to 30% for road sub-base / base / other road related applications except wearing
course. However, this should be backed up by laboratory test reports.
IV.
RA of appropriate quality (as mentioned above) can be used for various purposes, such as, in
making kerb stones, paving blocks, concrete blocks and bricks, road sub-base, ready mix concrete
(RMC), pathways for pedestrian use, rural roads (used for walking and bicycles) etc. However, it
has to be ensured that the existing norms for strength (such as, M20, M25 etc.) are complied with
for desired application.
V.
Fine washed aggregates in the range of 4.75 mm to 0.075 mm (75 µ) separated from C&D waste
using ‘wet’ process may be used as ‘manufactured sand’ for non-load bearing structures.
VI.
Recycled concrete aggregates have to be pre-wetted before use to avoid rapid slump loss due to its
high water absorption rate. Admixtures with better slump retention effect would be useful.
