Efficient Construction Technologies from the Point of View of Cleaner Production and Ecodesign
Issues:
Further development of prefabrication technologies that save resources, materials and costs, for (regionally) variable building methods and traditions:
- Timber construction and lightweight construction (originally: pre-industrial buildings; today: single-family homes and industrial buildings)
- Massive and building component construction systems (employed today in traditional housing developments, industrial buildings, smaller buildings, and public buildings)
- Classic prefabricated construction (employed today in large housing developments and industrial buildings)
- High-tech and mixed construction (employed today in office buildings and special-purpose buildings such as airports, etc.
Goals:
- Increased integration of individual trades (increasing the horizontal degree of prefabrication - for example, the integration of the technical infrastructure into the finished building components)
- Greater functional integration of individual building components (increasing the vertical degree of prefabrication - for example, building components complete with thermal insulation and cladding)
- Improved definition of where planning and production meet (for example, building component connections, harmonization of norms, CAD/CIM integration)
Targeted results:
- Further development of prefabricated construction aiming at greatest possible flexibility in planning and functionality (along the lines of small-scale series production and modular building systems)
- Technologies that make materials and cost savings possible and that accelerate planning and construction
- Technologies and other measures to improve quality in terms of building physics (indoor quality, thermal behavior and humidity), building planning (adaptability, ability to redevelop for new uses), and ecology (recyclability, life-cycle aspects).
