Construction waste management represents a significant challenge to sustainable infrastructure development due to extensive material consumption and waste generation during project implementation. This study aims to develop circular economy-based construction waste management strategies by applying the principles of reduction, reuse, and recycling to improve resource efficiency, minimize waste generation, and optimize management costs. A quantitative descriptive and comparative approach was employed using hypothetical simulations of four management scenarios: conventional waste management, waste reduction, combined reduction and reuse, and an integrated circular economy strategy. The evaluated parameters included waste composition, waste prevention, material recovery rates, net management costs, and reductions in final disposal. The simulation results indicate that, from an initial potential waste generation of 100 tons, the integrated strategy could prevent 15 tons of waste, reuse 25 tons, and recycle 40 tons of materials, reducing final disposal to 20 tons, equivalent to an 80% reduction. Furthermore, the integrated strategy resulted in potential net cost savings of 35.56%, decreasing management costs from IDR 45,000,000 to IDR 29,000,000, with a waste diversion rate of 76.47%. These findings suggest that circular economy principles can improve material efficiency and reduce construction waste management costs while supporting sustainable infrastructure development. However, the results are hypothetical and require validation using actual construction project data before practical implementation.
