Today, construction works and structural components have an average life expectancy of 50 or even 100 years. So it is all the more important for a society that reacts more and more quickly to changing conditions, to plan and build sustainably.
Here, sustainability does not just mean optimising buildings for the operational phase as early as the project development and investment phase. It also involves thinking about suitability for use by third parties, allowing for conversion, providing repair and maintenance measures or considering the final application in a technical light. In spite of all this, a property must be cost-efficient and provide its users with the highest levels of convenience, technical features and safety. Add to this the requirements of the integral planning and construction processes, which, at the same time, take place more and more rapidly.
