MECLA Working
Group 5d - Construction Materials & Assemblies
Working Group 5d – Construction Materials & Assemblies (WG5d) is a representative network of construction materials suppliers with a demonstrated interest in and commitment to decarbonisation. They facilitate a collaborative relationship that interprets demand side needs and provides a collective voice for suppliers.
This work includes knowledge sharing across masonry and bricks, asphalt and bitumen, glass and piping. It includes concepts of the circular economy and creation of high value recycled polymers for industry use. The Chairs of WG5d are Cathy Inglis, Group CEO at Think Brick Australia and ARTA and Dr. Josephine Vaughan, Lecturer at University of Newcastle.
Specification Guides
Over the past year WG5d have been developing specification guides for various materials which are now accessible on the MECLA website. You can access these via the resources page and below.
