Instead of using the recycle materials. Can there be any way where we can avoid it(when we observe the waste Hierarchy avoid is first step for minimisation).
Avoiding the waste completely will not be easy. I think complete waste avoidance is a subject which must be researched into because its like finding ways of making efficiency 100%. That will not be easy. However, using high technological machinery for construction projects really minimises waste generation. For example, there are construction machines which can lay a whole field with bricks in a matter of minutes. Encouraging the use of such machinery is key to minimising waste greatly, but it will be very expensive.
One way to make progress is to industialise construction processes. Sections and even complete bathrooms etc are manufactured in a factory and then mounted on site. Losses due to rain are avoided and intelligent design will avoid unnecessary material use. This will most probably save also time and money. Using a system of modules which already is standard procedure in car manufacture will still provide a variety of building designs. The cost for making such shift in production is however sustantial.
Prefabrication and Standardization of building elements can help reduce waste. Besides this proper Procurement Schedules and Proper Temporary yards constructed on site for storage may also prove worth.

A recently new methodology that is increasingly popular in construction industry is Building Information modelling (BIM), which has major playing role in reducing waste during design and pre-construction phase.
Systematic planning execution of projects will reduce waste.
