In case of a Brahmachari only one Yagnopaveetham is prescribed, whereas for a Grihastha three or four is prescribed according to their sampradaya. While wearing the subsequent Yagnopaveethams the following sankalpa should be recited along with the Yagnopaveetha dhaarana manthra as said above.

Second one: Mama Grihasthaasrama yogyatha siddhyartham dwiteeya Yagnopaveetha dhaaranam karishye

Third one: Uttareeyartham thrutheeya Yagnopaveetha dhaaranam karishye

Fourth one: Daanaartham Chaturtha Yagnopaveetha dhaaranam karishye

Yagnopaveethams should be worn, one by one as said above and every time Aachamanam should be performed and Gayathri should be recited.

Yagnopaveetha Visarjana

Remove the old Yagnopaveetham after performing Aachamanam and at least reciting Dasa Gayathri.  It should be removed from below the navel by reciting the Visarjana manthra.

Yagnopaveetha Visarjana Manthra

Old Yagnopaveetham should be dropped into water or on a Tree and should not be thrown into garbage.

Ps:

By and large while the procedure remains the same there could be difference in slokas which may be followed as per sampradaya. 

Words mentioned within brackets in Sankalpa sloka may change according to the date, time and occasion of changing the Yagnopaveetham.

Above procedure of changing the Yagnopaveetham is followed not only on the day of Upakarma but also in normal circumstances whenever the need arises.
