The first paper "From soon-to-be demolished mushroom column slabs to reused reinforced concrete saw-cut assemblies: the case of the rebuiLT pavilion" presented the rebuiLT pavilion and was authored by Célia Küpfer (SXL, EPFL), Malena Bastien-Masse (SXL, EPFL), Maxence Grangeot (SXL/CRCL, EPFL), Christian Meier (rebuiLT, EPFL), Lancelot Graulich (rebuiLT, EPFL), Julien Pathé (SCOP2401) and Corentin Fivet (SXL, EPFL). The second paper "Learning from North Americans: barriers and levers to reuse from practitioners' experiences" analysed interviews that Barbara Lambec (SXL, EPFL) made during a recent study trip in the USA and Canada. The paper is authored by Barbara Lambec, Maléna Bastien-Masse and Corentin Fivet.
