16 February 2022
The workshop “Advanced materials and methodologies in circular construction”, organised by researchers from IFIMUP and CONSTRUCT, from the University of Porto, and CQVR, from UTAD, will be held remotely on March the 4th, 2022.
This one-day thematic workshop will cover aspects of emerging materials and methodologies in the construction sector, including nanomaterials and nanocomposites, adaptive materials, machine learning, reflective and radiative coatings, energy efficiency or 3D printing, among others. Internationally recognized Keynote Speakers, from the USA, Canada, Belgium, Spain, the UK, Portugal, Italy and Norway, will share their expertise and valuable experiences
The workshop attendance is free but requires registration. Please access the registration form here.

This workshop is supported by Project Circular2B which aims to combine energy efficiency with waste recovery, focusing on the development of two new types of materials: the core material of SIP and the finishing render by replacing standard materials with functionally equivalent materials, such as plastics, C&D wastes and slag. The focus on prefabrication (modular construction) is supported by the fact that this type of construction considerably reduces the C&D wastes. Professor Nuno Ramos (DEC/CONSTRUCT) is the PI of the project coordinating a consortium of R&D partners (UTAD, FCUP and SINTEF) and an industrial partner (DreamDomus).
Look closely at the development of the project on our social networks at Instagram and Facebook (@circular2b).
The project is funded by EEA Grants. “Through the EEA Grants, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway established the objective of reducing social and economic disparities in Europe by strengthening bilateral relations with the Beneficiary States. Portugal will benefit from an amount of 102,7M€. Find out more at https://www.eeagrants.gov.pt/en/
