The CIB TG96 with the Centre of Excellence in Smart Construction, Heriot-Watt University and several CIB Commissions are organising an international conference on smart built environment.
Some of the key encounters facing the world growing cities and urbanization development include: affordable housing, employment, transportation, energy, clean water, food supply, quality education and health services, pollution, waste management, …, etc. This conference is aimed at addressing how a smart built environment would respond to these challenges; and how the construction industry can accelerate the pace of innovation to deliver a smart built environment.
The Conference theme, “Accelerating Innovation to Deliver Smart Built Environment,” highlights the desires and concerns of the built environment stakeholders and the ability of the construction industry to develop and adopt the culture, technology, and practices that would enable in the construction of smart buildings, robust infrastructures and cities.
