Combining conventional and innovative construction materials, products and techniques for sustainable and beautiful buildings

About

Opens for applications on 2027-05-05. A European Commission call for proposals. Expected Outcome: Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes: More optimised construction or renovation processes and improved building performance thanks to hybrid building solutions combining innovative and conventional construction materials, products or techniques. Increased awareness of the construction ecosystem [1] actors of the positive and negative aspects of hybrid building solutions. Scope: The transition to a more sustainable [1] built environment [1] has led to the development of innovative constructions materials, products and techniques supporting the decarbonisation, climate resilience, circularity [4] , durability or adaptability of buildings and the built environment, such as bio-based [1] and circular building materials, 3D-printed building elements or the redevelopment and/or adaptation of vernacular and traditional construction materials, products and techniques. These are often conceived as alternatives to conventional construction materials, products and techniques such as concrete, steel, or on-site construction, and efforts are not always made to combine the two. Yet, hybrid building solutions hold potential to impr
