New Sound Absorption Materials
Using Additive Manufacturing for Compact Size, Broadband Sound Absorption at Low Frequencies
This paper focuses on the circular economy (CE), the building industry, and on the disruptive technological innovations that intersect in these arenas. It outlines how disruptive, often digital, technologies can potentially enable a CE in the building industry, primarily within t

Governing construction projects in which 3D printing is applied
An integration of traditional project governance, product design and innovation
3D Printing is an emerging manufacturing technology that is in a research and prototyping stage in the construction industry. This research presents a governance framework for construction projects in which large scale freeform 3D printing is applied, based on empirical data of 7

Redesigning Waste
The Change of perception and implementation of (plastic) waste into the built environment.
The way the western society currently treats waste is hazardous and can threaten not only the public health but also (very delicate) eco systems. Annually over 87 million tonnes of plastic are being produced. Only 2 % is reintroduced into the original purpose. The rest of this pl

Growing buildings
How to design circular and sustainable buildings by using living organisms in architecture
In recent years, architecture has shifted towards more sustainable and circular design. The scarcity of building materials and environmental awareness of the building industry generated a need for new techniques and developments, pushing architects and designers to increasingly t
