Track: Industrialization

InnoFAB, an industrialised home renovation model that blends prefabricated techniques, advanced technology and sustainable practices. It optimises the renovation process, reduces execution times, and improves the quality of life for residents. This collaborative approach promotes urban regeneration in an efficient and accessible manner.

Winning project of a 2007 ideas competition, construction completed in 2023. The competition postulated a "singular" bridge, as an entrance to Madrid from Terminal 4 and the new neighbourhood of Valdebebas, which has been responsible for its financing. This iconic character found itself with a resounding object in its formal limits.

Mass Madera is a network to boost the use of industrialised solid wood in Spain as a solution to reduce the emissions associated with the building industry and meet the need to continue providing housing and urban solutions for a growing population. This round table will address the challenges and opportunities for the transition to this industrialised and decarbonising form of construction.

Get ready to optimise your processes! We’ll be talking about the scalability of production and the improvement of business competitiveness. We’ll boost sustainable growth and industrial innovation.

This presentation aims to explain the Khanvian construction system (a new patented system) applied to a multi-family high-rise building. We intend it to be an informative lecture for professionals focusing, once again, on industrialisation and a new revolutionary system, which is unique in the market.

This new proposal combines current prefabrication techniques for continuous bridges with a wet joint to achieve spans in the range of 100-250m. The singular part of the roof of the new Sagrera station combines the solution with prefabricated elements of open spaces of 48.00 x 39.08 m, with the aesthetic finish for the platform area.

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.

This round table aims to debate the role of industrialisation in the construction industry. Providing points of view, assessing progress (fast or slow) in the industry, etc., approaching it from a sustainability, digitalisation, resource optimisation, etc., point of view. What are the benefits? Who benefits the most? Builders, developers, clients, public administration, etc? All of them? Present and future? What lies ahead? Let's look at it from the 2030 Agenda.

The dialogue will focus on bulk construction systems beyond concrete. The discussion will include two approaches where the choice of material and the implementation demonstrate that there are alternatives to standardised construction in order to reduce the carbon footprint.
