In-situ Concrete Building - important aspects of industrialised construction

Journal article, 2001

In the ongoing research programme at Chalmers University of Technology, principles and methods for industrialised building with in-situ cast concrete are investigated. The goal is to increase the understanding of, and to develop methods and systems for, industrial building/construction. Improvement of in-situ concrete construction is necessary; partly in order to meet challenges from other materials. The article deals with questions of how the development should proceed and which research disciplines are needed as support. Opportunities for improvement are identified and a framework for the continuing work has been formulated.
