> materials and construction products, detailing for air tightness,  
> breathability etc.
> Construction innovation – constructability, creative approaches and  
> methodologies, including the application of innovative technologies
> Design tools – carbon profiling, environmental assessment methods,  
> life cycle analysis
> Disassembly – detailing for disassembly and materials recovery
> Education and training – new systems, approaches, processes etc
> Indoor climate – detailing for healthy indoor climates
> Passive design – thermal mass, passive solar technologies, natural  
> ventilation, etc.
> Monitoring and testing processes
> Retrofit for the future (adaptability, inclusivity)
> Low carbon innovation projects
>  Technical Programme
>
> The technical program will include keynote lectures, invited papers,
