Description	Journal: Iop Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science Construction is one of the productive sectors that generates the greatest environmental impact, on the one hand, there are high demands for raw materials and energy required for production, and on the other hand the large amount of solid waste is generated. In Chile, construction waste management is becoming a problem mainly due to the lack of planning for proper final waste management, wasting potentially reusable, recyclable or recoverable material. Knowing how to manage construction and demolition waste contributes to improving quality and production in construction work as well as maintain a responsible attitude towards the environment. This research study seeks to evaluate waste generation in a residential building work, to deliver proposals for improvements in the final disposal of these, through the creation of a methodology to quantify the waste production. In conclusion, submitting proposals for improvements for the implementation of a waste management system helps to achieve an activity within the construction sector, whose main objective is to contribute to a more sustainable construction through an adequate final disposal of waste generated in the construction process.
