Making sgraffito in traditional lime stucco and samples of work that can be done both in new construction and restoring: techniques that can be learned at the school of the Barcelona Painters' Guild

The General Assembly of the Chamber of Works Contractors of Catalonia (CCOC), which will take place on 22 May, is an annual meeting in which the results of the previous year are reviewed and key decisions are made on policies, strategies and budgets for the following year. Admission by invitation.

This session delves into exploring Turkey's transition from labor-based to knowledge-based construction practices through the lens of digital transformation and Building Information Modelling (BIM) integration. This session unveils a strategic framework aimed at fostering BIM adoption, capacity building, and policy initiatives, driving the industry towards enhanced productivity and efficiency.

Introducing the K-Line BIM configurator with its extensive joinery library covering our entire range. With it, improvements and efficiency are achieved in the construction processes, through the planning and visual representation of all the phases of the work, facilitating the manufacture of the carpentry and ensuring its perfect implementation, guaranteeing its durability.

Technical and practical conference where the products of the Frontek and Argos brands for ventilated façades will be developed. These are two extruded porcelain products that can be covered on the façade of both new and renovation buildings, creating an elegant structure that is sustainable and efficient, as well as elegant, resulting in a 35% reduction in air conditioning and heating costs. In the case of Frontek, its honeycomb pieces allow for much easier installation while considerably reducing the weight of the façade. Attendees will be able to see a live demonstration of the different assembly systems. They will also be able to touch different pieces of the collection to check out the textures and volumes.

The Plenary Session of the Higher Council of the Associations of Architects of Spain (CSCAE) is the monthly meeting in which the councillors, representatives of the 50,000 registered architects in our country, address issues related to the defence of the profession and the protection and social dissemination of the values of architecture for the general interest.   Created in 1931, the CSCAE is the public law corporation that represents the Associations of Architects of Spain and the profession to public administrations and private entities. Admission by invitation only.

FECOCAT, which brings together 14 Guilds and Associations, is taking advantage of CONSTRUMAT to hold its board meeting and participate in this important event. Access by invitation only.

A practical demonstration session will be held on painting techniques with the use of different methodologies and imitation with ecological, environmentally friendly materials that contribute to sustainability.

As the digital age unfolds, the architectural and design landscapes are undergoing transformative shifts, primarily driven by the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This presentation will explore the intersections of design and technology, emphasizing AI's evolving role in shaping responsive, adaptive, and sustainable spaces. We'll delve into how AI's algorithms, particularly generative AI, are revolutionizing traditional architectural paradigms by offering tailored solutions for diverse environmental contexts. By showcasing real-world applications and drawing parallels with historical design movements, we aim to highlight AI's potential not just as a tool, but as a collaborative force that merges human creativity with algorithmic intelligence. The future promises spaces that are not merely built but are dynamically crafted, anticipating and responding to human needs. Attendees will gain insights into the challenges, opportunities, and boundless horizons that lie ahead in the confluence of AI, architecture, and design. CC1.4

We will learn about the professional opportunities of sustainable construction, we will analyse the trends in the industry and promote networking between professionals and companies. Key visions and knowledge will be shared on the future labour landscape of the industry, with a wide range of topics such as professional profiles, requisite training, valued skills, recruitment channels and future challenges. Organised by Barcelona Activa with the support of the BCN Vocational Education Foundation

As the construction industry faces challenges in reducing its ecological footprint and increasing productivity, new technologies such as computational design, digital fabrication, IoT, robotics and artificial intelligence offer the promise of affordable, fast, sustainable and customisable architecture.  

SES, SteelEmbedSystem, is a new integrated pre-industrialised slab system. The system is a very high quality and extremely lightweight slab solution in both mixed and dry designs. SES intelligently combines the design of OSB, galvanised steel sheet, EPS and concrete to maximise performance and deliver a high performance floor.

Practical example of replacing traditional mortar with other dry bonding materials in Ceranor's SATEbrick and TermoREC Systems. Increased speed, reduced water consumption. Simplified installation, maintaining all the advantages of the system in terms of stability, thermal and acoustic insulation, obtaining considerable savings in indirect costs per square metre.

Bussle is a tool that tries to improve cognitive accessibility on public bus transport through an App for the end user and a Web-based Dashboard for the carer, responding to what is a legal right according to Law 6/2022, of 31 March.

If you want to meet professionals in the Construction industry to hire them for your organisation, we invite you to participate in the Job Market Place that Barcelona Activa organises in collaboration with Construmat. We look forward to seeing you on May 23 in this recruitment and networking space, where you will find professionals pre-selected by Barcelona Activa - suited to your needs.

The digitalisation trend is also present in the construction sector. In particular, Witeklab has developed sensors that can monitor processes such as the real-time setting of in-plant or precast concrete, or the evolution of corrosion processes in the rebars of reinforced steel structures. These sensors obtain data from inside the materials, which are post-processed in the cloud to provide decision data to the owner or manager of the construction site or infrastructure.
