In order to establish effective reuse processes within the construction sector, it is essential to implement fundamental changes to existing practices. It is imperative for all stakeholders to reconsider their roles and responsibilities. However, the development of new regulations and structures in both theoretical and architectural form is also a necessity. This thesis is dedicated to the built infrastructure, which serves as a fundamental basis for the large-scale reuse of building products. This encompasses locations where building products can be transferred, temporarily stored, and prepared for their new use during the reuse process. The work identifies, deepens and develops key areas of the built infrastructure. Furthermore, it examines and demonstrates spatial requirements and potential for circular construction hubs. Through an interplay of theory and design, it develops profound visions for circular construction hubs and a circular value creation network. In this way, the work makes a contribution to the field of study by providing a foundation for future discussions on this little-researched topic area.
