Stavební Gramotnost - Přednáška Takhle se mění svět a workshop Člověk a město

Vzdělávací program o stavebnictví vznikl z iniciativy NCS 4.0 a je financován stavebními firmami, které tak převzaly aktivní roli v podpoře technického vzdělávání a popularizaci stavebnictví směrem k veřejnosti. Partnerství v programu je otevřené všem zájemcům, a to i bez nutnosti členství v NCS 4.0. Partneři 2025

Construction 4.0 Testbeds

Key Areas of Collaboration Across Testbeds:

3D Printing and Robotics: Development of technologies for 3D concrete printing, development of printing materials, printing robots and heads, and automation of construction processes.

Digitalization and BIM: Implementation of BIM, digitalization of construction documentation, 3D scanning and creation of digital models, development and use of digital twins.

Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR): Use of VR and AR for simulations, preparation of virtual prototypes, and optimization of construction processes.

Materials Research: Development of new construction materials and composites, materials with autonomously controlled heating, and research in the field of the circular economy.

Energy Systems and Sustainability: Research and development in carbon-free technologies, energy simulation and optimization, smart monitoring, and the use of IoT.

Facility Management: Automation and optimization of building maintenance and operations, indoor environmental quality monitoring, safety, and energy management.
