Misión
In the Advanced and Sustainable Construction group, the aim is to explore the limits of knowledge and technology in order to propose new materials, products and construction systems that offer advantages over existing ones, under the premise of being more sustainable. The objective is to envision the construction of the future by analysing the technical, functional, economic and social perspectives.
Advanced and sustainable construction must be seen from a broad point of view that encompasses the development of new construction tools (materials, processes and services) with better performance, functionalities (multifunctional) and capacities, aimed at satisfying the well-being of the user and society in an environmentally friendly way.
The main objective of the Advanced and Sustainable Construction group is to advance knowledge through the development of research projects obtained in public, national and European calls, the specific support to R&D and innovation activities of the agents and the industry of the sector and the transfer of knowledge.
