Sustainable construction aims to reduce the enormous consumption of energy and resources caused by the construction industry. The focus is on technical, economic and social changes in the use of raw materials, sustainable building materials and innovative materials, the expansion of recycling, and the establishment of a circular economy. This requires interdisciplinary collaboration between academia and industry. As part of the Saxony⁵ Transfer Network, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, numerous researchers will provide insights into the latest developments through presentations, discussions and demonstrations at this public event.
Come along to learn more, network and help us put the latest research findings into practice.
Event details: 23 October 2023 | 2.00 pm – 5.30 pm (Doors open: 1.30 pm)
HTWK Leipzig / Carbon Betontechnikum | Hans-Weigel-Straße 2b | 04319 Leipzig
Registrations can be made until 12 October 2023 via the following link: https://www.htwk-leipzig.de/forschen/nb-2023.
This year’s annual event will take place at the Carbon Concrete Pilot Plant at HTWK Leipzig, where technology transfer can be experienced first-hand: in this globally unique model factory, the automated production of carbon concrete components will in future be tested on a pilot plant scale and demonstrated with a view to transferring the latest research findings.
The programme of talks for the public part of the event therefore focuses on the Saxony⁵ application area ‘Sustainable Construction’ within the ‘Environment’ transfer field. Sustainable construction aims to reduce the enormous consumption of energy and resources caused by the construction industry. This requires interdisciplinary collaboration between academia and industry – both to develop new materials and establish circular economy concepts, and to transfer the latest research findings into practice. To ensure the topic is examined from as many different perspectives as possible in the lecture programme, all researchers from the partner universities are invited to take part.
Both participants in the Saxony⁵ project and researchers from the partner universities are welcome to attend the lecture programme. In the interests of knowledge transfer, the lecture topic must focus on the application of research findings in the field of ‘sustainable construction’. This may encompass not only technical aspects but also economic and social aspects across the entire construction value chain. The presentations should focus on illustrating the potential for knowledge transfer and application of R&D results. The presentation should last between 15 and 20 minutes; a slideshow or supplementary interactive elements may be included.
We would be grateful to receive short proposals (outlined on no more than one A4 page) by email by 28 September 2023.
If you have any questions regarding the presentations or the programme of the event, please contact Dr Franziska Böhl (telephone: 0341/3076-6626, email).
