Stay ahead with the latest insights in the construction world.
In response to steadily rising sea levels and increasing extreme weather events, settlements and/or entire cities that float on water are being positioned as a potential solution to urban expansion demands. Concepts have been announced in countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Japan, the Maldives and the United States.
Beyond aesthetics, a building’s façade is a crucial element that directly affects how it performs with regards to light control, acoustic intrusion and extrusion, managing heat absorption and heat loss, resisting environmental influences and so much more.
Artificial intelligence, sustainable construction concepts, prefabrication and smart materials are shaping the future of structural engineering. The summit will discuss the rise of AI-driven tools to enhance structural integrity, seismic resilience and load optimisation; efficient construction through 3D printing and prefabrication, and autonomous construction tech.
Structures built with concrete or reinforced concrete can become damaged and/or unsafe due to age or other factors. However, they can be repaired and rehabilitated by leveraging cutting edge techniques and modern smart materials, safely extending the structure’s operational life.
