Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper is an analysis of two provincial waste tire management programs and the potential that exists using repurposed tires in sustainable construction. In an effort to mitigate the environmental hazards waste tire piles present, Canadian provinces have responded in various ways to repurpose tires for several different uses. While the tire reprocessing programs of Nova Scotia and British Columbia produce a wide variety of different recycled-material products, they both depend on secondary industrial processes to break down the existing tire structure in to its bare components. To capitalize on the initial energy inputs that exist in tire fabrication and avoid further reliance on energy-intensive industrial reprocessing, waste tire use in sustainable construction is proposed. The pioneering architecture firm Earthship Biotecture is examined to highlight the potential that exists by reprocessing tires in rammed earth tire homes.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
