چکیده مقاله :

Using waste recycling management, various responsibilities can be categorized, and work efficiency can be greatly increased. This indicates that responsible people should take waste management functions at construction and demolition operation sites more seriously, actively engage in the development of marketing, and seek to promote development. The present study aimed to investigate factors that affect successful waste recycling management in Shiraz. This study was applied in terms of goal, and descriptive-correlative in terms of data gathering. The statistical population of this study consisted of experts and directors of Shiraz’s Municipality. Sampling was performed via the non-probabilistic method of convenience type. For this, the number 270 people were selected as the sample volume. The main tool to gather data was a questionnaire. Data were analyzed by structural equation. Findings revealed that social values and norms had the highest effects on behavioral goals. The project’s limitations had the highest effects on waste recycling success. Included in the project’s limitation factors were recycling costs that had the highest effects on the success or failure of waste recycling. In addition to the project’s limitations, economic satisfaction, government oversight, and technical factors had the highest effects on waste recycling success. Out of economic satisfaction factors, saving and optimal use of recycled materials had the highest effects on waste recycling success. Meanwhile, out of technical factors, required tools and machinery had the highest effects on waste recycling success.
