Top-shelf projects in research on built environment

The Institute of Construction and Environmental Technologies (iTEC) conducts researches on all aspects of the built environment, from construction materials and elements in buildings to networks and infrastructures on territorial scale. The developed solutions contribute to the environmental impact reduction of construction, to mitigate effects of natural hazards, and to positive effects on the local, urban and regional climate.

The built environment is not only a burden for the net-zero carbon target but can also provide crucial contributions to its achievement.
