4. Methodology
To accomplish the aforementioned research objective of developing a model for estimating construction waste during the early design stage of residential construction projects, a quantitative approach was employed in this study. A total of 213 detached residential projects were utilised, and both waste quantities and building designs were taken into consideration. These projects were systematically selected to represent the typical range of construction styles and sizes observed in New Zealand, encompassing the work of several small builders. The sample spanned a period of approximately seven years, from 2015 to 2023. Within the sample, there were residential projects completed by a national builder (n = 162) as well as several small builders located in Palmerston North and Manawatu (n = 51) in New Zealand. A smaller subset of the sample comprised architectural-style homes. The selected projects predominantly featured detached houses with raft slab foundations, pre-nail timber frames, colour steel roofing, and board/sheet and brick or stone cladding. The data collected for analysis were divided into response variables and predictor variables.

6. Discussion
This article presents a comprehensive investigation into the residential building design factors influencing construction waste volume, utilising multiple predictive models. The study primarily focuses on identifying the best-fit model to enhance the accuracy of waste volume predictions. As the Pearson correlation analysis shows a strong correlation between floor area and roof parameters, the analysis involves three distinct models (model 2, model 3, and model 4), each incorporating different sets of predictor variables. The findings reveal intriguing insights into the correlation between various construction parameters and waste generation.
The increasing importance of sustainable construction practices has spurred research into understanding and predicting construction waste volume. This study delves into three predictive models, aiming to identify the most influential factors and enhance prediction accuracy. Notably, the research explores the impact of roof parameters on waste generation, shedding light on previously underexplored dimensions of construction waste modelling.
The initial model (model 1) establishes a strong correlation between construction waste volume and fundamental factors such as working days, corners, and floor area. Intriguingly, residential projects led by small builders exhibit significantly higher waste generation, providing valuable insights for waste management strategies. Model 2 introduces enhanced accuracy (80.00%) by incorporating additional predictor variables, notably the presence of multiple bathrooms. Despite the increased accuracy, the study suggests that the fitness of model 2 is not significantly different from model 1, emphasising the practicality of model 2 for prediction without roof parameters. The incorporation of PCA elucidates the dominant factors contributing to waste generation. PC1, representing overall built area, emerges as a significant contributor to waste volume. PC2, influenced by internal wall length and roof area, provides supplementary insights. The combination of PC1 and PC2 explains a substantial 97.34% of the total variance, underscoring their importance in waste volume prediction. Model 3 introduces roof parameters, showing a lower AIC (71.48) and an accuracy of 75.00%. The negative correlation observed between PC1, PC2, and waste volume suggests that reducing the built area may mitigate waste generation. Moreover, the study identifies a positive correlation between adding extra levels to a structure and increased waste volume. The final model (model 4) incorporates roof cladding type, working days, and bathrooms, achieving a remarkable 100.00% accuracy in test data predictions. The positive correlation between PC1 and waste volume is reaffirmed. Importantly, model 4 does not exhibit a significant difference in fitness compared to model 3, signifying its applicability for accurate predictions with roof parameters.
7. Conclusions
This study employed generalised linear models to examine the relationship between design features and waste generation in residential buildings within New Zealand. Generalised linear models were chosen due to their ability to offer a more flexible approximation of the distribution of the response variable, surpassing the capabilities of multiple regression models. Consequently, this approach enabled the development of a model with a high level of accuracy, estimating construction waste generation in residential projects within New Zealand at approximately 80% accuracy.
The analysis revealed that small builders tend to generate a greater amount of waste in residential projects compared to national builders, as supported by compelling evidence obtained from the model. Furthermore, the results indicate that enhancing the accuracy of waste estimation can be achieved by incorporating additional design features into the model. Principal component analysis demonstrated that certain design features, specifically overall built area, internal wall length, and roof area, significantly contributed to the variance in waste volumes. This implies that these particular design aspects exert a substantial influence on waste generation, surpassing the impact of other design features. Additionally, the findings indicate that the overall waste volume can be reduced by minimising the number of bathrooms and the overall built area. The implications of this study’s findings are particularly valuable to construction stakeholders, especially those involved in the design phase, as they offer insights into minimising waste generation by optimising design parameters. By implementing the recommendations derived from this study, construction industry professionals can contribute to sustainable practices and waste reduction in residential projects.
