The adaptability of building materials refers to their ability to be used and reused in different ways and contexts. It can include their ability to be easily installed, modified, and dismantled, as well as their durability and flexibility to suit changing needs and circumstances. This is becoming increasingly important as the construction industry seeks to reduce waste and improve sustainability by promoting the use of materials that can be repurposed or recycled. Examples of adaptable building materials include modular construction systems, prefabricated components, and materials that can be disassembled and resold or repurposed for other building projects.
