Lecture description

Every building is a stockpile of raw materials, but hardly anyone knows exactly what's in it. Digital material passports change that. They record which materials and components have been installed, in what quantity and quality, so they can be used for dismantling, reuse and valuation. Through a hands-on demo, the session shows how a material passport is created, what data it needs and what contractors, designers and owners can already do with it today, from tender to deconstruction.
